Public Asked to Keep July 4th Celebrations `Safe & Sane’
1 min read
The use of illegal fireworks in neighborhoods over the Fourth of July holiday has been a growing problem in the Las Vegas Valley that Clark County and partnering agencies are asking for the public’s help and cooperation to address. Fireworks labeled “safe and sane” are the only type of consumer fireworks allowed in Clark County and only from June 28 through July 4 each year when nonprofit groups are allowed to sell them for fundraising purposes at locally licensed and inspected stands. Residents who want to see large fireworks displays are encouraged to enjoy professional shows hosted at various venues around the community with oversight from area jurisdictions. The “You Light It, We Write It” campaign to educate the public about what’s allowed – and what’s not allowed – and the penalties if caught using illegal fireworks – will be active over the holiday.
