Woodburning is very polluting and dirty. Campfires do not belong in Kitchener backyards. They should be banned.

Cambridge banned these campfires from backyards many years ago. Waterloo banned them at the beginning of this year. 2013 should be the year that Kitchener council bans these fires.

N2C 2J4 Smoky air is a concern. It's ridiculous to have to shut the windows all the time. Wood smoke is a public health problem.

Wood campfires belong in campgrounds not in Kitchener backyards.

Wood firepits etc. do not belong in Kitchener backyards either.

N2M 5G1 Local air quality is a concern. The air smells like smoke too many nights.

There is no reason for campfires in backyards. Smoke is a health hazard.

N2B 3J5 Smoky firepits etc. in Kitchener backyards should be banned.

We need to know why the fire chief had no way to fine people who keep breaking a bylaw that has been around for years. Seems this bylaw was never enforced or taken seriously.
1137C. Martin
Banning wood firepits should be region-wide. Kitchener needs to ban. Smoke is a public health hazard.
1138Sue Hammond
N2B 3J5 There is no good reason for this backyard campfire nonsense to continue. Air pollution is in the news all the time.

Fire pits and wood burning in urban areas destroys health, the air we breathe and our quality of life.
Ban/end/prohibit all Wood burning in urban areas.
We all deserve the right and common decency to breathe healthy air--air that is Woodsmoke-free.
1143Laurie Newport
These wood firepits were always too close to houses. Wood smoke is a health hazard and should be treated as such by banning wood fires from Kitchener backyards.
1144Marie Williams
N2M 5H4 A permit system like the one Cambridge has had in place MANY years if not an outright ban.
1145Dale Corriveau

There's a good reason that most other cities have banned these fires. Look at Kitchener's asthma rates and that's only one health problem.

Wood is one of the dirtiest fuels. Campfires should be banned from the backyards of Kitchener.
1149Lise Sharpe
Waterloo and Cambridge both do not allow woodburning in backyards. What is the delay about in Kitchener? Ban now.
1150Dee Cameron
Why should everyone have to close their windows due to smoke every summer?
