New County Information

 

 

The Shackelford County Commissioners voted this morning (March 10, 2025) to place a ban on open burning for the next two weeks. The winds of the past days and statewide experience are factors as well as the forecast for wind gusts this week, some reaching 80 mph. Of course no local restrictions will curtail possible electric line downages, due to wind, that could ignite a wildfire, but we can reduce the risk by reducing personal activities while wind risks are so high. The Commissioners Court will revisit the issue on March 24. The Court does not enjoy putting restrictions on its citizens.
