THE MARAVAL POLICE STATION ENGAGE MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC THROUGH TOWN HALL MEETING:
The TTPS continues to engage members of the public, aimed at promoting open dialogue and finding workable solutions to the issues that affect the members of the community. Here are some highlights from the Maraval Police Station's Town Meeting held last Thursday
'Call Fire First! #990'
#DrySeasonAwareness When you light a fire, with or without a permit,
you are taking a risk. That risk is particularly high during the dry season.
Not only can a fire escape controls and result in a bush/forest fire,
smoke from burning waste affects nearby residents, especially those
with respiratory ailments.
We urge you to #besafe and #beconsiderate - refrain from burning waste!
Call 990 for Fire Service!
