The definitions contained in the NYCRR Title 6 Part 215, entitled "Open
Fires" are hereby adopted for the purposes of the within section.
In addition to the prohibitions contained in Section 215.2 of the Building Code, there shall be prohibited in the Town of Geneva the burning in an open fire of garbage, refuse or rubbish of any kind generated from any source except as provided in §
70-4 herein and §
70-6.
The Code Enforcement Officer shall establish a system for issuing such
open fire permits and they shall be available on the same basis as other permits
issued by the Town of Geneva Code Enforcement Officer.
The provisions of this chapter shall not apply to burning within an
agricultural use zone or an other use zone where the property being burned
upon is used for agricultural business, provided that said burning is required
in the agricultural business of the individual burning.
The Code Enforcement Officer or a Fire Chief in the Town of Geneva may
prohibit the burning in an open fire at any time that such official believes

would be endangered. Such prohibition shall continue until conditions improve
to the extent that such burning may be safely resumed.
