Planned Burns in Cedar Falls

There will be several planned burns in Cedar Falls Tuesday. The locations include Washington Park, Central Park, Pheasant Ridge Golf Course, the buyout lot at 2523 Central Avenue, the buyout lots on Joanne Street on the north and south side, and at 700 Stanley and Shirley Street.

There will also be a planned burn at Prairie Lake Park Wednesday. All of the burns are tentative based on weather conditions. Planned or prescribed burns are used to control invasive plant species and restore and maintain native plant communities that will benefit wildlife and promote sustainable ecosystem services.
