County burn ban extended

Marion and Harvey County Commissions extended burn bans for their respective counties for another week.

Marion County Commission met Tuesday and determined conditions remained too dry to allow open burning.

The ordinance does not allow any type of open burning, encourages extra caution in discarding smoking materials, and requires those welding or using open torches to have water available in case of fire.

The commission will review conditions at Monday's meeting.
