Let's stick to the topic: Leaf burning in Mt Vernon.

That's the issue here.

It's unhealthy and unsafe to burn leaves here in Mt Vernon, and it needs to be banned ASAP.


I am not being antagonistic. I just am wondering why you care about that issue so much.

Have you presented scientific facts to the city, county and state?
Are you writing your congressman and senators?

Are you being proactive politically to get the laws changed?

JB, you are a person that really and truly cares about this potentially deadly problem. Your posts show that. I, too, hate the stinch of burning trash and leaves. I think it is deadly, also.

But, what are you doing about it other than posting and posting in these forums?

I do not know any politicians in Illinois, so I cannot help you in that manner. But in reading some of these threads, there are people here that could help you locally.
