Commission plans July 4 fireworks outreach and festival participation; commissioner offers to fund printing
Summary
Commissioners discussed continuing last year's quiet-4th flyer and banners encouraging people to avoid illegal fireworks; one commissioner offered to pay for printing and staff discussed distribution through the post office, Grange and schools; no formal vote was taken.
Commissioners discussed plans to continue last year's public-education efforts ahead of July 4 and to post banners and flyers advising residents to avoid illegal or loud fireworks.
One commissioner said the town's July 4 last year was "the quietest the town had had in quite some time" and urged continuing the same flyer approach. Commissioners talked about printing enough flyers for distribution through the Grange, the post office and recreation activities; one commissioner offered to pay for several hundred flyers or to have the Grange and other partners contribute.
They also discussed parade participation and whether the sheriff's office and tribal partners would join; neighboring community representatives indicated they would participate if given notice. No formal appropriation or vote to fund printing was recorded at the meeting; participants agreed to coordinate logistics and to bring final numbers to the next meeting.
