Fireworks Discussion Brent said there were three issues remaining unresolved regazding fireworks
that people still had questions about and they were:
(1)Insurance-The vendors did not understand what was required of diem that
they hadn't done in the past and what the new ordinance will entai1.11he issue
was the city had asked the vendors to have $5 million in coverage and reduced
the amount to $2 million. The city was requiring each vendor to have i$2 million
coverage and some vendors have multiple locations and, for example ~an $8
million dollar policy is inadvertent.
The city is proposing the vendor have $2 million dollars in coverage and this
would cover all the tents the vendor operates. Brent explained the city raised the
amount of insurance required to take Gaze of the city's liability
Brent said during the next month to month and one-half staff will go through
each insurance certificate submitted last year and mark the areas that do not
conform to the proposed insurance and work with the applicants on a lone on one
basis to see that those requirements aze met. Brent said the city will cNork
with the applicants early on so there aren't insurance issues when it comes time
to issue the license.
(2) The definition of bottle rockets (pop bottle rockets)1 was not clearly defined.
The city had looked at some other states and the city had heard from other
vendors the size still may not be right and the staff is willing to work with the
vendors on this issue and cleazly define the size and correct definition.
(3} The shooting time was a concern for the residents. The city's curlrent
regulation for shooting is June 19th through July 6d' for shooting from 10:00
a.m.-10 p.m. until July 3rd and midnight on July 3rd and July 4d'. Brent said some
of the citizens complained there was no answer for their complaint on shooting
times. The city has decided to revise the shooting time period from June 261h to
July Sd' and December 3181, 10:00 p.m and 1 a.m. on January 181.
Visitors comments Kurt Eckard, 5100 NW High Drive mentioned the landlord issue. Brent said
the city still feels, at staff level, the issue should be discussed between the lessee
and the lessor in their agreement whether verbal or written. Kurt still feels the
landowners name should not have to be on the license as any other landowner
in the city does not have to do this and thinks the landowners name should only
be on the application.
Mayor Pro Tem Beard referred to the city ordinance stating only
the landowners name be on the application.
Kurt mentioned the shooting times and was at the meeting in 1999
and the people wanted the shooting times longer. Kurt said it was
changed with the state laws times with no complaints. He believes the
change of shooting time will hurt the sales of fireworks because that's
when selling begins.
John McClelland, City Attorney said a little slack, on size of the bottle rocket
should be placed in the ordinance for differences.
Kurt asked to make the length 11" and the casing 2 ''/I'.
John McClelland said it is safer to go with the 12" length.
Mike Koska, 2121 Vivion Road said the 11" is agreeable. He mentioned
prohibition versus control. Mike mentioned the shooting times changed.
Mike says business is being banned if the 12" overall length, greater ffian
2 %:" in length and 3/8" diameter is the final dimensions.
John McClelland suggested the size of the bottle rocket should be greater than 2
%x" in length 12" in overall lengkh, and 3/8" diameter.
The board was polled and unanimously agreed on the above mentioned size
for bottle rockets (pop bottle rockets).
Mayor Pro Tem Beard said bottle rockets will be banned in 2007. Np type of
product is being regulated until 2007.
