If sitting around a campfire is part of your plans this fall, you’re going to have to wait. A burn ban has been instituted in the city of Mt. Carmel and Wabash County. At this evening’s city council meeting, Mt. Carmel fire chief Francis Speth said the ban on all outside burning was necessary until further notice…
Meeting a half hour before the city council, county commissioners also imposed a burn ban for the entire county. It will be up to the Mt. Carmel Police Department and Wabash County Sheriff’s Department to enforce the burn ban.
