The last several years the City Police Department has been noticing an increase in complaints concerning fireworks.
As per Ashton City Code section 8.12.010., the City has adopted the Idaho
State Code on fireworks (title 39, chapter 26).
This code allows citizens to use “Nonaerial common fireworks” which are
fireworks that do not fly or emit sparks outside a 20 foot diameter circle or
higher than 20 feet. Firecrackers are also prohibited.
The City police are asking citizens to be mindful of their neighbors and to be
cautious around any fire hazards. They are also encouraging parents to be
watching their kids closely while handling fireworks.
As the committee for our 4th of July celebration, we go through a lot of effort
to make sure our display has the proper required permits and liability insurances needed for such a show. We encourage you to respect others and abide
by the laws as we all enjoy and remember this great Independence Day. We
want everyone to have a fun and safe holiday!
