Livingston lifts burn ban

A burn ban put into plays just days ago due to dry and arid conditions in Livingston County has been lifted, according to Judge-Executive Teris Swanson. 

The ban was issued on Sept. 3 and removed Saturday, Sept. 14 following a couple of days of rainfall.

Although ban is lifted, Swanson reminds everyone to abide by outdoors burning laws.

Staring Oct. 1 is Kentucky's wildfire season when outdoors burning within 150 feet of a grassland or woodland is prohibited during daylight hours form 6am to 6pm.
