County Implements Fireworks Ban—July 4th Exception In Place!

In a significant response to increasing fire dangers, state and federal officials have imposed extensive fire restrictions across Western Arizona. These measures aim to mitigate risks during the peak fire season. On Monday, the county further solidified its commitment to safety by ratifying its own fireworks restrictions, focusing on areas prone to fire hazards.

However, residents can still celebrate Independence Day without limitations in unincorporated areas of the county. This unique allowance allows for traditional Fourth of July festivities, despite the broader restrictions aimed at protecting communities and natural resources from potential fire outbreaks.
