Outdoor burning rules in Orland Park, IL — also called the burn ban, open burning, or fire restriction ordinance — set when you can burn yard waste, debris, or run a recreational fire.
Orland Park regulates outdoor burning under the adopted IFC 2018. Recreational fires in approved containers up to 30 inches are permitted. Open burning of landscape waste requires county and state permits.
The Village of Orland Park adopted the International Fire Code 2018 (Ordinance No. 5830) which governs outdoor burning. Recreational fires in manufactured containers no greater than 30 inches in diameter are permitted in rear setbacks at least 5 feet from property lines. Only cut, natural wood may be burned. Open burning of landscape waste requires permits from Cook County and potentially the Illinois EPA. Local ordinances may be more restrictive than state regulations. The Orland Fire Protection District enforces fire code provisions and may order immediate extinguishment of unsafe fires. Cooking on barbecues and grills is generally permitted.
Fire code violations carry fines of $50 to $1,000, plus legal fees. Unauthorized burning may result in fire department response.
