Commission rescinds fireworks ban
Last updated 7/1/2021 at 3:45pm
CLOVIS In what certainly felt like a no-brainer based on the weather outside, Curry County commissioners decided against extending a ban on specific fireworks ahead of the July 4 weekend.
The commission, citing drought conditions, in its June 1 meeting enacted the fireworks ban, with the knowledge they’d discuss the matter again at the Tuesday meeting.
By the time commissioners arrived to the meeting, they were greeted with rain in three of the last four days and predictions of rain throughout the week.
County Fire and Safety Director David Kube told commissioners given recent rains, “I can’t reasonably say we need to extend it.”
