Woods fires and trash fires have been frequent lately in Lacombe. Please watch your back yard fires. Do not leave fires unattended and please follow the STP burn ordinance rules for burning. Remain cautious especially when it is dry and windy as it has been. The preventable fires that we are responding to are in addition to our true emergencies, which are straining our resources. Once again, please burn according to parish rules and do not leave a fire unattended. Unattended

On April 24th, Fire District No. 3 will be on the ballot for a millage RENEWAL, not for a new tax. The millage renewal will keep the fire department operating and protecting Lacombe. Please vote Saturday, April 24th and support your fire department---St. Tammany Fire Protection District No. 3. Thank you! Patrick Sicard Fire Chief
