Travis County court maintains burn ban and approves consent agenda

Judge Andy Brown told the court that staff had reported a burn ban remains in effect after a recent fire and briefly reviewed several no-action items on the agenda, including outdoor burning and emergency response. He then read the consent agenda items and the court approved the consent agenda on a motion from Commissioner Trevillian, seconded by Commissioner Morales; the judge recorded the vote as unanimous.

The judge listed no-action items the court would not decide on that day—such as reappointments to the Children’s Protective Services Board, establishing a mental health program, removing missing county equipment from inventory, and an ITS security briefing—and asked county staff to verify the status of the burn ban.
