The province is lifting the restricted fire zone as of midnight tonight.

The North Bay Fire Department says you must have a permit and any permits from last year are valid until the customer service centre at North Bay City Hall re-opens.

When that happens homeowners will be expected to obtain a 2020 permit.

Deputy Chief Greg Saunders says new permits won’t be issued until the customer service center at city hall is open again.
