Real County Commissioner’s Court held it’s regular meeting this morning. The commissioners took no action on the burn ban, fireworks regulations or Declaration of local disaster regarding fireworks. Real County does not have a burn ban in effect and fireworks will be permitted for the holidays.

Real County Judge, W.B. Sansom, Jr. opened discussion regarding the fees for the sanitation services. Sansom asked the court if they felt the current $200 fee for septic inspection was acceptable.
