Every emergency is in need of a positive answer if you wait for your emergency to answer this question time is valuable in many ways so will ALL fire units fit down your driveway? or if road needs clearing contact your city officials, county commissioner, or POA.

Due to the weather forecast of strong winds and windy conditions everyone please refrain from outdoor burning today. The wind and humidity along with dormant fuel (grass and brush) still present, can cause issues containing outdoor fires. If you do burn please make sure to have the means to contain it and if it does get out of hand please call 911 ASAP if you THINK you need our assistance you need our assistance. The quicker we are notified the quicker we can get it under control. ANY TIME you have a controlled burn contact Franklin County Sheriffs Office at 903-537-4539 with your name and location. Thanks for your cooperation.

“Public Service Announcement - RED LIGHTS on POV Vehicles.

Have you ever seen someone driving behind you with a RED flashing light? What does that RED light mean?

In Texas flashing RED / RED WHITE lights displayed (with no BLUE flashing lights) on a vehicle indicates a volunteer firefighter is responding to a 911 call in their personal vehicle. They are responding to their fire station or to the scene to provide the manpower needed for the emergency.

If you see a passenger car with a flashing RED light, please consider treating it like any other emergency vehicle; we (your Community Volunteers) are requesting the right of way - this is a courtesy light. When it is safe to do so, please pull over to the right and come to a complete stop, so that we may travel safely past.

Many people don't realize what these flashing RED lights are for. Every second counts. Help us help you. You never know, we could be responding to an emergency for a friend, or one of your loved ones.”
