Town Manager's Town Update - July 2009

(Posted July 2, 2009)

Residents:  At the request of many residents the Town Commission has agreed to resume noseeum spraying for the rest of this fiscal year.  We will be using a barrier spray against the mangroves which are the main habitat for them.  We will need access to enter private property and therefore need homeowner's permission.  Letters will be mailed June 5th.  If we do not hear from you we will assume that you do not want spraying done on your property.  The once-a-week spraying will begin on June 9th via backpackers. (Posted June 4, 2009)
Open Burn Permits
Effective immediately the Town of Ocean Ridge will be issuing the open fire burn permits.  Applications can be obtained at Town Hall (Open Burn Permit / Hold Harmless Agreement).
The following rules will apply:

1) Permits will only be issued to property owners and residents with written permission from property owners.
2) Permits must be approved by the ORPD.
3) Permits will not be issued when the County Fire Marshall issues a "no burn ban".
4) The permit contains additional regulations for the open fire.

Burn ban has been lifted as of May 22, 2009.
