An Initiative to Ban Consumer Fireworks in Bellingham

A hard-copy petition to get an initiative to ban fireworks in our City should be ready next month. This initiative, if passed in the November, 2012 general election, will require changes to three (3) different Chapters of the Bellingham Municipal Code (BMC) and result in a City-wide ban of the sales, possession and use of consumer fireworks starting in late 2013.
