Obtain state fire safety burn permits online

The Idaho Department of Lands has a new website, BurnPermits.Idaho.Gov, enabling Idahoans to obtain state fire safety burn permits online.

Idaho law (38-115) requires any person living outside city limits anywhere in Idaho who plans to burn anything -- including crop residue burning and excluding recreational campfires -- during closed fire season to obtain a fire safety burn permit.  Closed fire season began May 10 and extends through Oct. 20 every year.

The fire safety burn permit is free of charge and good for 10 days after it is issued.

Grangeville city-wide spring cleanup set May 28-31

GRANGEVILLE – The City of Grangeville is offering its annual community spring cleanup May 28-31. During this event, residents can dispose of items – free of charge -- that normally do not fit in the green garbage totes.

To participate, call city hall, 983-2851. Items for collection cannot be toxic, they have to be brought to the curb, and they must be able to be lifted by the loader and fit in the city dump truck.

Items’ pickup is scheduled to be that Thursday and Friday, May 30-31, unless there is large participation, at which point collection may start Wednesday, May 29.
