Burning Yard Debris

[cm-happy]

Does anyone know if private home owner can burn yard debris, leaves, garbage etc. Is this legal?

If not legal would it do any good to complain to local police about a neighbor, I live in a housing estate in CM and have talked with the indiviual as have some of my other neighbors about his constant burning of yard debris. The estate association has also spoken with the offending person. He'll stop for a few weeks and then begins all over again.

This is becoming a source of great irritation. Not only is it altruistic not to burn, damaging to the ecology, etc. but is also a health issue, not only with myself, but with some of the neighbor kids.

I have no problem with the burning of leaves, do it m'self. No worse than starting up a BBQ. Annoying though when they throw in plastic.
