A vegetation fire was reported Monday afternoon around 3pm behind an apartment complex located at 300 New York Ranch road. Upon arrival on scene by Jackson fire Chief Mark Morton he discovered that a burn pile that had been unattended had burned out from its parameters igniting an approximately a 50 by 20 swath of vegetation. Jackson Fire Crews and Calfire crews quickly extinguished the blaze. Today’s fire was a reminder that even though we recently had rain the vegetation is still very dry and burn piles must be attended at all times until they are dead out.
