Resolution 5764, a Resolution in Support of Fire Regulation 6-02 Governing <br />Sale, Manufacturing, Storage, and Use of 1.4G Fireworks as Legalized by the <br />State Legislature and Signed into Law by Governor Ventura. <br /> <br />Fire Chief Zikmund briefly explained that this Resolution is a reaction to the recent law <br />legalizing the use of 1.4G fireworks. He then asked Council to support it and noted Spring Lake <br />Park and Blaine have done so. <br /> <br />Mayor Sonterre complimented Fire Chief Zikmund on providing a thorough and prompt response <br />in such a short time period. <br /> <br />Council Member Marty indicated he was pleased with the addition of banning fire works during <br />a drought event. <br /> <br />Mayor Sonterre pointed out that the misdemeanor fines are set by the state and not the City. <br /> <br />Council Member Marty thanked Fire Chief Zikmund for incorporating Council Member Thomas’ <br />concern by adding 6.1 to the document covering a disposal fund. <br /> <br />MOTION/SECOND: Marty/Stigney.
