Information
Agenda Item
Discuss, consider, and take appropriate action on the issuance of a county burn ban for a period not to exceed 90 days and to authorize the County Judge to lift said ban when conditions improve.
Background
While rainfall has been plentiful, grasses are dead from freezes and are very susceptible to ignition. Wet conditions further hinder fire operations by limiting access to the fire with heavy equipment, which could lead to fire growth and increased loss.
