Reminder: Open burning is PROHIBITED within the city limits of Blue Ridge. You could face possible fines and penalties if you’re caught burning.

Those in the unincorporated area are allowed to burn, but there are regulations that must be followed. Those regulations can be found by accessing the link below.

It’s dry folks, and there is an abundance of dead vegetation. These dry conditions, mixed with high winds and low humidity are prime conditions for wildland fires. We have seen an increase in grass fires throughout the North Texas area over the last 3 days. So, be careful if you are doing any outdoor burning.

Just FYI, it is illegal to shoot fireworks inside the city limits of Blue Ridge. We know yall are going to shoot them off anyways. So do us a favor and don’t burn yourself, don’t burn someone else, don’t burn your house down, and don’t burn anyone else’s house down! 🔥

Lastly, PLEASE DON’T DRINK AND DRIVE!
Stay safe and Happy New Year!
