(KNZA)--The Doniphan County Commission is considering a proposed resolution that would limit open burning within the unincorporated portions of the county.
Discussion continued at this week's meeting with Emergency Management Coordinator Julie Meng, Sheriff Chad Clary and County Attorney Charles Baskins regarding the proposed resolution.
The resolution would give authorities the option to file a civil complaint against anyone who conducts open burning during a burn ban.
No action was taken. According to the unofficial minutes from Monday's meeting,
Commissioner Bobby Hall recommended tabling action until the county's rural fire districts have a chance to review the proposed resolution and provide any input they might have.
