There is no need for concern.

And here I thought it was coming from a politician who’s pants were on fire!
Why can’t they do this Erev Pesach and kill 2 birds with one stone?
It’s done between Jan and April every year to cut down on the forest fire chances in locations across the state. It has nothing to do with the holiday and it’s not always the same areas they do planned burns all over. It’s not just about lakewood
Good point!
Maybe they will, Biezrat Hashem.
Anyone know what the point of controlled burns are?
If you don’t burn the brush on the ground it piles up and makes a out of control fire. By making a small fire you stop a big one from happening.
