City of Grande Prairie reminds residents of fire ban ahead of May long

The Grande Prairie Fire Department is reminding residents that despite the wet weather ahead of the May long weekend, a city-wide fire ban remains in place.
The ban encompasses all fire pit areas, both on public and private land as the risk of wildfire remains high. The city says adhering to the ban is "essential" for the safety of the community and its surroundings.
"The recent rains, while welcome, do not offset the prolonged period of dry conditions that have heightened the fire risk," Actin
