🚒 MULTIPLE FIRE CALLS – SOUTH GUNDAGAI - 16/5/26🚒

Crews responded to multiple calls to separate properties today reporting fires within town which were later identified as bonfires / yard fires.

All calls were made by concerned neighbours who believed the fires may have been house fires or out-of-control burns.

This is an important reminder that if you are conducting any burning activities in town, please notify your neighbours beforehand so they are aware and do not become unnecessarily concerned.

If your fire becomes unsafe or starts to spread, call Triple Zero (000) immediately.
