Hall County citizens are free to burn leaves and limbs starting Saturday, Oct. 1 if they have the correct permits.
Hall County Fire Rescue issues two different types of permits that citizens can apply for. A residential burn permit allows residents to clear leaves, limbs and other debris from their yard. Residents can apply for Hall County Fire rescue’s residential burn permit by visiting the Hall County Government’s website.
There is also a land clearing permit, which allows authorized citizens to remove trees for agricultural, residential or commercial purposes. There are a few additional steps to apply for this permit, like a required land inspection from the Hall County Fire Marshal’s Office. Additionally, those interested in this permit must have a pit and air curtain destructor.
Citizens can call the Hall County Fire Marshal’s office at 770-531-2481 Monday through Friday to schedule an inspection. The agency requests that citizens give a 24-hour notice before scheduling an inspection.
