Care Required When Burning Off Permits in Benalla
Benalla fire rules require permit holders to supply own gear, a problem as private knapsacks are scarce. Captain Squires says the brigade cannot loan gear or attend unless a fire is out of control. Borough may buy six knapsacks or request stock at a nearby station. Permits require cleared strips, 24 hour neighbour notice, and no fires after 4 pm or before sunrise. Town clerk Latch notes permit volumes have risen.
