Bonfires are illegal.
Kilare County Council has outlined its preventative plans for dealing with unauthorised bonfires this Halloween.
Independent Cllr. Padraig McEvoy proposed a motion at the recent Clane-Maynooth MD asking the council to outline what preventative plans are in place to deal with unauthorised bonfires that recur at Halloween.
A spokesperson for the Council said that the Environment Department will 'contact relevant internal departments to arrange a meeting to discuss the issue and consider appropriate assistance.'
Kildare Fire Service responded to 25 call-outs last Halloween night.
Members of the public are reminded that bonfires are illegal and bonfires which potentially threaten lives, property or infrastructure will be extinguished.
