Housing Tip of the Week: Fire Prevention

Last week was fire prevention week but please ensure it is an everyday practice. A fire can happen at any time, but you can prevent it. Here are a few tips:

• Do not leave food that is cooking on the stove unattended.

• Check your smoke alarms regularly to ensure they are working. If you need a new one, call 311 and the Fire department will install one for you.

• Safely charge your batteries
