HOW A BURN PERMIT WORKS

1. Once approved, it is the applicant’s obligation to call City Hall and inquire if the day they wish to burn is a "good burn day”.
2. City Hall will then call the Mission Fire Department to determine if it is a good day to burn.
3. Upon notification from the Mission Fire Department, the city official will inform you if it is a "good burn day".

On a good burn day, burning is allowed during the following: 

Monday - Friday
Burning must start between the hours of  8:00 a.m. - 9:30 a.m. and end by 1:00 p.m.
