A fire on Sheboygan’s shoreline is expected within the next few days. That’s not a prediction, but a plan by the Department of Public Works.
The site is the bluff which rises above North Point’s rocky outcrop which has become overgrown with invasive species and, over time, has built up an abundance of woody debris that will be burnt, helping to both reduce the debris and kill remaining shrubs. After the burn, seeding and planting of native plants such as milkweed will help restore native cover.
Exactly when the burn will take place depends upon the weather. The DPW says that the burn window is very narrow, and so anytime from now through early December will be targeted by qualified professionals to conduct the operation.
