Prepare for the upcoming fire season by attending the City's online fire information meeting at 7pm on Thursday, October 24, 2019.
This booklet includes vital information on fire safety on your property, bushfire management plans, asset protection zones, firebreaks and fire service access, burning restrictions, fire safety bans and hazard reduction.
Lighting fires on your property can be extremely dangerous. Prohibited and Restricted burning dates are set according to seasonal conditions and may be adjusted.
Property owners in the City of Swan are required to reduce fire hazards and install fire breaks prior to November 1 and maintain their property in that condition until April 30 inclusive.
When a Total Fire Ban or a Harvest and Vehicle Movement Ban has been declared it is illegal to carry out any activity that is likely to cause a fire.
The City of Swan has appointed people as Bush Fire Control Officers under the Bush Fires Act 1954, Part IV Division 1 Section 38.
Bush Fire Control Officers from the Brigades are volunteers and their ability to issue permits may vary in some instances.
