Hilton Head Town Council to review fire, rescue plan

Posted: Updated:

HILTON HEAD ISLAND, SC (WTOC) -

The Hilton Head Island Town Council is meeting to discuss new restrictions for outdoor burning and fire alarms.

It's all about the 2013 fire and rescue strategic plan. It would ban outdoor burning and would impose fines for false fire alarms. Both of which were hotly debated in committees.

The plan also includes an off-island hurricane evacuation shelter for fire and rescue staff and equipment.
