Fannin County, Texas -- Due to dangerous conditions that could lead to fast-moving grassfires, Fannin County Commissioners Court voted to extend a countywide ban on all outdoor burning. That decision came during a regular meeting of Fannin County Commissioners Court held Tuesday, October 1, 2024.
Fannin County residents are asked to be particularly mindful of any equipment or outdoor work that may cause a spark or ignition source that could go unnoticed.
High winds can cause grassfires to spread very quickly and can cause firefighting to be difficult and dangerous, as well. Please help keep our county safe!
Fannin County Commissioners Court will revisit the burn ban on a weekly basis.
