Local fire officials warn people to take extra precautions when doing any outside burning this spring. On Monday morning, a fire call resulted in multiple units from the Algoma Fire Department being dispatched to a reported fully-engulfed house fire on County S, three miles south of Algoma near the County Trunk U intersection. Algoma Fire Chief Tom Ackerman said when they arrived on the scene at about 10 am, the actual fire was a rubbish pile being burned.   It was decided with the windy conditions that it was best to extinguish the fire to prevent any possible spreading. The Algoma Fire Department cleared the scene after only about 15 minutes. Outside burning permits are needed for uncontained fires and should be done only when conditions are safe for burning.
