Regulations for fireworks this week in Paradise Valley
Metro Creative Connection
Legal consumer fireworks can be used in Paradise Valley through July 6.
Posted
Through July 6, legal consumer fireworks will be able to be used on private property in Paradise Valley.
Fireworks cannot be used 11 p.m.–8 a.m., except on July 4 and 5 until 1 a.m., according to the Town Manager’s Weekly Update. To answer any questions, call the fire marshal at 480-348-3552.
Please practice the following fireworks safety.
• Never allow children to play with or ignite fireworks, including sparklers. Sparklers burn at temperatures of about 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit — hot enough to melt some metals.
• Make sure fireworks are legal in your area and only purchase and set off fireworks that are labeled for consumer use.
• Never use fireworks while impaired by alcohol or drugs.
• Keep a bucket of water or a garden hose handy in case of fire or other mishap.
• Light fireworks one at a time then move back quickly.
• Never try to relight or handle malfunctioning fireworks. Soak them with water and throw them away.
• Never place any part of your body directly over a fireworks device when lighting the fuse. Move to a safe distance immediately after lighting fireworks.
• Never point or throw fireworks (including sparklers) at anyone.
• After fireworks complete burning, to prevent a trash fire, douse the spent device with plenty of water from a bucket or hose before discarding the device.
