The Village requires information on this fire and specifically the cause as the call out charge to the Village is $11,000 and at this point it is uncertain who started it.  If you have any information please contact us in confidentiality (complete) at svsandyb@xplornet.ca 

Tax payers are reminded that this type of irresponsible behaviour is costing everyone.

Please report any suspicious activity (target practice, open or any other fires and ATV's without spark arresters) immediately at the RCMP Morinville or 780.718.1894 (Village cell 24/7).

This posting is done in good faith as the majority of our tax payers are now been charged for the irresponsible behavior of one or perhaps two people.
