Find answers to common questions about the Fire Department
Burn permits are required for anyone, residing in the Hubbardston FD coverage area, who intends to burn brush or grass areas. You do not need a permit to burn within a fire ring.
HFD has the right to deny the issuance of a permit to ensure the safety of residence and property within the coverage area.
Permits are free.
Once issued, HFD will notify Ionia County Central Dispatch therefore if a call is made to 911 for a potential fire, central dispatch can verify whether or not HFD needs to be dispatched. If you burn without a permit and HFD is dispatched to respond, you will be charged for a fire run.
To receive a permit, please call or email (preferred method). A permit is not issued until you receive a response from a department member. Also, if you call the department, please take note that the phones are not checked on a regular basis therefore you might not receive an immediate response.
