Burn Site Open


Oxford News

Due to the late falling of leaves the Burn Site will be open today and through the weekend for the public to use. Regular rules apply that ONLY yard waste is to be dumped i.e. leaves, limbs, grass clippings.

Our Burn Site does get inspected by the State of Kansas to ensure that we are following proper procedures, so we ask that you adhere to the rules so that we do not get a violation from the state that could result in the closing of the Burn Site.
