common sense should prevail but there should be some way to stop the abuse of a privilege rather than punishing all.

I can understand the distance. But don’t we already pay enough taxes? What would the money be going towards? Certainly not our inferior roads. N2E 0B5

There is no reason to punish everyone for the misbehavior of few

Smoke and fire from firepits has been deemed dangerous to your neighbours' health and well being, however, for $10 City Council concedes that it is safe 6 times.Give me a break!!!

I moved to Kitchener INSTEAD of Waterloo for the purpose of having bonfires, you can't take this away, its a time to connect with friends and neighbours.

Please don't do this.

Totally opposed - Stop hurting the masses by catering to the few. 6 fires @ $10 per household = CASH GRAB!! Plus, that really doesn't address the so-called 'health issues' that these few people complained about. Don't be stupid, don't take away our rights!

KEEP THE FIRE PITS!

Restrictions off back yard fire pits is taking away a persons right to use the back yard as they see fit. This is a silly and shortsighted decision.

I don't mind extra safety measures. I hate to see the cash grab going up. I believe we pay enough as it is.

It is wrong for a fee to be charged and unfair to the majority of people who have been responsible. This impacts on quality family time.

Adding my address. Stealing my FirePit is a crime against my rights to use my back yard. 72 calls is nothing compared to the already 870+ signatures here.

I am a native here and I use the fire pit in my yard for ceremonies and also pleasure, this is the native peoples land and we have a right to have our fires in a secure firepit in our yards and this should not be taken away.

N2a2r3 - we use our fire pit to cook most of our food, with a grill that fits over it we cook steak, burgers, chicken ect. You trying to tell me I can only cook 6 times a year now and I have to pay??? I don't think so!

N2A 1T8 -This is rediculous. Having a campfire in my backyard is such a bonding time for me and my family. My children always stay home when I have a fire and we talk for hours. Lots of smoke from inside fireplaces too, is that next to be removed??

Respect and responsibility between neighbours. Please don't let a small percentage of irresponsible folks ruin summer family and friend time for the rest of us! Postal code N2N 2C3

I think we should keep the backyard pits. I had one for long time and never got a complant.

I understand the problem but not the solution.. I get that a fire should be after a certain time , but to charge per fire is rediculas.. A permit should be for the whole season not per fire.. If there are complaints call them in , deal with each individual

educate the public on proper fire techniques! Burning hard, dry wood reduces smoke substantially. i've spend a lot of money landscaping my patio to have a proper good looking, functional fire pit.

My neighbour's cigarette smoke drifts over sometimes. That bothers me more than a wood fire.
