There will be no fireworks display this July for the City of Florissant and Mayor Tim Lowery and Police Chief Tim Fagan have reminded the public that fireworks are probited in the city of Florissant.
\nUnder the city\u2019s code, section 215-020 The sale, possession and use of Fireworks are prohibited by law under section 215.020 enacted by the City Council several decades ago. This Administration has placed a renewed priority on enforcement of this ordinance in an effort to prevent death, injury, fires and disturbance of the peace. Violators will be subject to a fine of up to $1000
\nAccording to the Florissant Police Department the city and the nation has experienced a noticeable increase in the amount and size of the pyrotechnics near the 4th of July and New Year\u2019s Eve which has resulted in complaints of peace disturbance.
\nA more disturbing trend is the national increase in the discharge of fire arms for the 4th of July and New Year\u2019s. What goes up must come down and spent bullets can kill or maim a child, adult or pet and cause expensive property damage. Discharging firearms is always illegal and violators will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
\nBut there was good news on the Music Under the Stars, concert series, a Florissant summer tradition. The complete summer season is scheduled starting July 11.<\/p>\n
