FROM:
GEORGE A. NEWMAN, COUNTY
JUDGE
SUBJECT:
SUSPENSION OF COUNTY BURN BAN
As of today, April 28, 2009, the Burn Ban
placed in effect by Taylor County Commissioners Court has been hereby lifted.
Prior to burning,
all citizens are cautioned that they are personally liable for damages their fire may
cause to property of other citizens. Additionally
when deciding to burn, citizens are asked to contact their local volunteer fire department
directly or through the Taylor County Sheriffs non-emergency number at 325-674-1300
to give notice of their intent to burn.
I caution all
citizens of Taylor County to exercise great caution with outdoor burning and to assume
responsibility to have safeguards in place before attempting any burning.
