Q: I would like to discuss a concern or idea with all of Council. Can I come to a Council meeting and discuss?

A: Yes, but you must ask the Clerk at least one week in advance. Section 10 of By-law A-028.01 Procedural By-law for the Council of Hartland,  if anyone wishes to address Council at one of the meetings, they must contact the Town Clerk at least one week in advance to be added to the agenda. Giving notice allows some time for staff to do any research Council may need before they could consider a request.

Q: Do I need a permit to have a campfire in my backyard? I live in Coldstream.

A: No. While Coldstream is now a part of the town of Hartland, section 8.a. of By-law D-07 Fire Protection and Prevention states a recreational fire, which includes a campfire, does not require a permit. Section 3.p. clarifies the definition of a Recreational Fire as being no larger than 1.5m in diameter with a non-flammable base. Always be sure to check the provincial website to ensure there is not a fire ban in place before having a campfire. https://www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/news/public_alerts/forest_fire_watch.html
