FIREWORKS: Thanks for nothing
I address this to the thoughtless people who set off loud fireworks in residential neighborhoods, though they may be non-readers.
I read online that Kootenai County code allows citations for violations of the fireworks law, which prohibits blasting after midnight, throwing fireworks from moving vehicles or using them where they can start a fire, but that citations are rare. Too bad. My family lives in a pretty quiet, well-mannered area, until July 4th and NYE roll around. Beginning before dark, the fireworks were going strong. Some were so huge they shook our house. This seems to happen on neighboring streets to ours, but they’re close enough to terrify animals and disturb the right to quiet enjoyment of our own surroundings.
A little consideration, please, people.
