Cash Grab and totally ridiculous!!!

I agree. This is a total Cash Grab. We are all responsible adults and should be allowed to enjoy our time with family and friends around a fire without having to pay for it. What's next?

City council ignored the vast majority of citizens, over a few complainers. Bring back our previous bylaw.

Another knee jerk reaction by an outdated counsel. You already tax us, stop issuing new fees and fines just to live here.

IF it's a safety or health concern, how does charging $10 per fire make it safer and more health conscious? Unbelievable.

Can we vote on a new counsel?

Everytime you turn around they are trying to control your every move. And tell you this is the way it is going to be. (PERIOD)

Quick reaction to council from a few people complaining. Squeaky-wheel phenomenon again. Not like they changed the by-law because of it being too dangerous. - 76 Kenneth Ave

50 something emails to a council wanting to eliminate fires does not constitute a strong majority of the staff.

This is ridiculous! Every time a whiner complains they have to change laws..move the few whiners to the country where they belong! Total cash grab! N2A 2R3 80 Pepperwood Cr.

Why do we pay taxes...what does that cover exactly?? Apparently not a fire in your own backyard!

Stop the madness

In complete agreement with R. Sneddon (petition below) "If it's a safety or health concern, how does charging $10 per fire make it safer and more health conscious? My thoughts this is offensively conspicuous & a blatant 'Cash Grab' .. Ludicrous

Too many restrictions in this already bubble-wrap world, don't add another.

Cash Grab. Let's ban cigarettes fist, they kill a lot more people.

A backyard campfire is about as Canadian as it gets! I will be having a campfire this weekend, celebrating this beautiful country we live in! N2M 1X2

N2M 5E4. Whole point of having a backyard is to enjoy it not to get permits!

I support backyard fire pits and am opposed to the new restrictions. Kitchener, ON N2N 3G8

If a neighbour's dog barks all night long, that impacts my health. Will the City of Kitchener ban dogs next? Or perhaps just limit them to 6 barks per year?

Resigning petition with postal code: N2N3G8. I support the old by laws. These new laws are going too far to please only a few people.

N2P2A2 I follow the old bylaw, I get that my yard is too small...but I enjoy many backyard fires in the city. This change is absurd.

So let me get this straight... 80-some e-mails and they make a big deal of it? Well guess what, 14 people have already signed this petition to keep the bylaw as-is. Kitchener N2E3Z6.

I am for fire pits in the entire Region of Waterloo.

N2G 2Z5 - there should be no change to the existing bylaw.

We have 6 properties adjouning ours, and not one neighbour has ever complained -- to us or the city -- about smoke from our fires.

I am TOTALLY IN FAVOUR of backyard fire pits! Why should everyone have to suffer because of a handful of sticks in the mud? Outdoor fun shouldn't have a price tag on it!
