Try put the condition subquery directly inside the the view select statement. you may CAST the XML to VARCHAR(20).

CREATE VIEW [AQB_OB].[GISREQUESTEDBURNS] 
AS    
SELECT RB.[RequestedBurnsID] AS REQUESTEDBURNID
  ,BUY.[BurnYear] AS BURNYEAR
  ,CY.[CurrentYear] AS CURRENTYEAR
  ,RB.[BurnSitesID] AS BURNSITESID
  ,[BurnerID] AS BURNERID
  ,[Contact] AS CONTACT
  ,[BurnDecision] AS BURNDECISION
  ,RB.[Comment] AS COMMENT,

 (
     SELECT DISTINCT BD.[RequestedBurnsID],
             [ConditionsReasonsID] = STUFF((SELECT ', ' + CONVERT(VARCHAR (20),     [ConditionsReasonsID]) FROM [AQB_OB].[BurnDecisions] 
     WHERE [RequestedBurnsID]= BD.[RequestedBurnsID] ORDER BY [RequestedBurnsID] ASC
    FOR XML PATH ('')) , 1 , 1, '') FROM
    [AQB_OB].[BurnDecisions] BD
 ) AS CONDITIONS

FROM [AQB_MON].[AQB_OB].[RequestedBurns] RB
LEFT join AQB_MON.[AQB_OB].[PileDryness] PD on RB.[PileDrynessID] = PD.[PileDrynessID]
inner join AQB_MON.[AQB_OB].[BurnYear] BUY on BUY.BurnYearID = BP.BurnYearID
inner join AQB_MON.[AQB_OB].[CurrentYear] CY on CY.CurrentYearID = BUY.CurrentYearID
