Commission keeps fireworks sales schedule after first-year celebration; will collect data for future review
Summary
Commissioners decided not to change this year's fireworks sales schedule after mixed vendor input and positive feedback on a new community celebration, and asked staff to collect usage and complaint data to inform any future changes.
Denise introduced a compromise proposal on fireworks sales, saying vendors had pushed in opposite directions and that this year's rules were a middle-ground compromise. "This year was kind of a compromise in the middle of that," she said, and added she would share but not attribute vendors' comments with the Commission.
Several commissioners praised the community celebration added this year and urged no immediate change. "I think also this year the community celebration was a big help," a commissioner said, while another added, "I agree. I think we just leave it the same." One commissioner said the dates for next year fall Sunday through Sunday, which could address missed Friday sales, and asked that staff collect data so future narratives can be backed by numbers. Denise confirmed she will retain and maintain the data collected from this year's event and vendor interactions.
