Brown County officials voted to lift the county burn ban for one week and discussed notifying the public; no formal roll-call vote or ordinance number was recorded in the transcript.
Brown County officials voted to lift the county burn ban for one week during the meeting.
An unidentified official who first spoke in the transcript (Speaker 1) moved “to just turn back for a week.” Unidentified Official (Speaker 2) led the voice/hand-raise vote and announced: “The burn ban is lifted for a week at least at the moment.” Board members discussed notifying residents and named two people who needed to be called.
The transcript shows a short procedural exchange about whether a formal written order is required to rescind a burn ban; Speaker 2 said there is “an order to put it on, not to take it off,” and participants did not complete additional paperwork in the record. The officials directed staff to notify the public; specifics on the text of any public notice or the names/numbers of the two people to be contacted were not recorded.
The action took effect immediately as announced in the meeting by hand/voice vote; individual vote tallies and any ordinance or formal order number were not specified in the transcript.
