Maryville extends period for yard waste burning

By ordinance, the city has identified three periods a year for burning yard waste. Those periods are between April 1 and April 14, July 17 and July 31, and October 24 and November 6 from dawn until dusk or as modified based primarily on weather conditions.

Materials permitted for burning include leaves, small twigs and grass clippings. The Maryville Public Safety Department reserves the right to cancel this burn period extension if weather conditions become too dangerous or unsafe.
