As we celebrate the 250th Anniversary of our nation’s independence, ACPD wishes everyone a safe and enjoyable holiday with family and friends. Please help keep our community safe by using fireworks responsibly. ✅ Follow all local laws and ordinances. ✅ Only use legal fireworks in approved areas. ✅ Keep children and pets a safe distance away. ✅ Never allow young children to handle or ignite fireworks. ✅ Keep a bucket of water or a garden hose nearby in case of fire. ✅ Never relight a firework that doesn’t go off. ✅ Soak used fireworks in water before disposing of them. ✅ Never use fireworks while under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Fireworks can cause serious injuries and fires in just seconds. Celebrate responsibly, be mindful of your neighbors, and report any emergencies by calling 911.
