The installation and use of certain fuel burning appliances and flammable liquid storage equipment require a permit issued by the Fire Department. Additionally, permits for blasting, fireworks display, as well as certificates for smoke, fire, and carbon monoxide detection equipment are also obtained from the Fire Department.
Permits for the open burning of brush are issued and are exempt from fees or inspection, but have restrictions which must be followed.
To obtain the proper permit application please contact the Granville Fire Department at (413) 357-8572 ext 2.
