From the County Judge's Office
Parker County Commissioners voted unanimously to extend the burn ban in Parker County for another 30 days at a special called meeting of the court held Monday morning, March 3.
Though rain fell Sunday and Monday, Parker County continues to be included in a state disaster declaration and conditions remain high for grass fires.
“Until we get green grass, conditions are still ripe for fires,” Parker County Judge Mark Riley said. “It is expected to clear off by Tuesday of this week with high winds returning, keeping the situation at a dangerous level.”
