The City of Spruce Grove has issued a fire advisory effective Sept. 17, 2025, due to dry, windy conditions and increased fire risk.

Open burning is not permitted, and no new open burn permits will be issued until conditions improve. Backyard fires are permitted only in approved fire pits by residents who have been issued a City of Spruce Grove fire pit permit. CSA approved appliances designed for cooking or heating, such as barbecues, patio heaters, and pellet smokers are permitted. To learn more about backyard fire pit requirements and safe burning guidelines, visit sprucegrove.org/FirePits. 

Spruce Grove Fire Services reminds residents to be cautious when using smoking materials and to dispose of cigarette butts only in appropriate metal containers. Never throw cigarette butts out the window of a vehicle or building, and do not extinguish them in flowerpots or planters. Emergency locator posts are located throughout the Heritage Grove Park trail system. To report fire, smoke, or any other emergency within the park, dial 911 and tell the operator the number of the nearest emergency locator post. 

Be advised, this fire advisory may be upgraded to a full fire ban on short notice.
