Fire Restriction in Effect

Due to the increasingly dry conditions, the FIRE ADVISORY has been upgraded to a FIRE RESTRICTION, for Saddle Hills County.

Campfires in non-combustible, manufactured firepits, charcoal briquettes in approved barbeques, portable propane firepits, gas or propane stoves and barbeques, catalytic or infrared style heaters, wood fires in an enclosed facility or device, which has a chimney with a spark arrestor, burning barrels that are a minimum distance of 30 m away from structures and 6 m away from combustible materials.

 

Hand-piled agricultural brush and debris burning that is less than 2 cubic meters in size is allowed, if it is in a cultivated field or another fire guard is in place, a Fire Suppression Plan is in place, and Municipal Notification Requirements have been met

Dog Licences

If you reside within the Hamlet of Woking and have a dog, this dog is required to be licensed.

Licenses are issued on an annual basis. If you have previously purchased a license for your pet, this will need to be renewed by December 31 of each year, to avoid any fines. 

Please contact the County office or fill in the online application to purchase an annual Dog Licence for the four-legged members of your family. Payments can be made at our office during regular business hours, over the phone using a credit card, or added to your utility bill.

Any breaches of the Dog Control Bylaw are subject to the penalties outlined in the Master Rates Bylaw.    

If you would like any more information or to speak to someone, please call our office at (780) 864-3760 or email frontdesk@saddlehills.ab.ca
