The Blanco County Commissioners lifted the county-wide burn ban at their meeting Tuesday morning.
Matt McMain, county fire marshal, told the commissioners that all three of the county’s fire departments were in favor of lifting the ban. They voted unanimously to lift the burn ban as of noon Tuesday.
The Texas A&M Fire Danger Report for Blanco County is moderate most of the week except Wednesday, when it is high or very high. There was a burn ban in place for 116 of 254 Texas counties as of the end of the day Monday. Burn bans were not in place in Gillespie, Kendall, Comal and Hays counties, while they were in place in Llano, Burnet and Travis counties.
