DEWITT COUNTY, Texas — The DeWitt County Commissioners Court lifted the county's burn ban Monday. The burn ban was first issued Aug. 24 because of dry conditions across the county. With conditions improving, county officials voted to rescind the ban during Monday's Commissioners Court meeting. Residents are still encouraged to use caution when conducting any outdoor burning activities. Goliad, Refugio and Matagorda are the remaining Crossroads counties to still be in a burn ban, according to the Texas Forest Service Burn Ban map .
