🎆🔥 Stay safe this Fourth of July! Follow these important fireworks tips from The City of Fairfax Fire Department Fire Marshal's Office: 1. Designate a Shooter: Choose one adult to handle fireworks. 2. Clear the Area: Keep spectators at a safe distance. 3. Water Nearby: Have a bucket of water or hose ready. 4. No Relighting: Never try to relight a dud firework. 🎆🔥 Remember, proper disposal is crucial! After fireworks, soak them in water overnight to ensure they're fully extinguished. Once cooled, place them in a metal trash can away from buildings or anything flammable. Never dispose of fireworks in regular trash bins or recycling containers. 🚫🎇 Illegal fireworks pose serious risks to our community's safety. They're often unpredictable, can cause fires, and are illegal for a reason. By refusing illegal fireworks, you help protect our neighborhoods and prevent accidents.

In Texas, it is generally illegal to discharge fireworks within city limits. Most cities in Texas have ordinances prohibiting the use of fireworks within their boundaries, and violators can face fines or other penalties. However, regulations on fireworks may vary by city, so it is essential to check local ordinances before using fireworks. It is worth noting that fireworks are allowed in unincorporated areas of the county, subject to specific regulations, and it is always important to follow safety guidelines when using fireworks.
