Why not just kill every tradition we have.

Nik Myles

Steven Daniels you have got to be kidding. You compare 4th of July traditions with slavory and gay marriage? The 4th of July is a celebration of the founding of our country.

Yes I will miss the enjoyment of our neighborhood getting together in the street with simple fireworks for the kids, remembering and talking about our Independence and why we support and practice this event.

Gabe West

I don't see how fireworks will cause a fire if they are done in a parking lot with no trees around, stupid ban by a liberal unpatriotic city council

They wouldn't have to make a stupid ban if stupid people would use them responsibly. But that's asking too much of republicans like yourself.

Gabe West

Why do people that arn't safe with them have to ruin it for us

They are an unnecessary and wasteful form of entertainment. They are often a PTSD trigger for many combat veterans. They are a sensory trigger for people on the autism spectrum.

Lilly Aschoff

Protecting our land, wildlife, and fellow humans with sensitivity to explosions is by far more important than the entertainment of the few.

Rick Allen

NO they created many problems and fires, good riddance I say!

Vernon Budd

The gen these days has no common sense

Bob Ingram

They are dangerous and many people that use them are disrespectful towards other people AND their property.

Since nobody sits outside in the cold of winter, why not remove all the outdoor eating areas at least in the winter??

Michael Turpin

Parking and city revenue out weigh the small gain in revenue the business say they receive.

Jay B Lane

Nobody is sitting outside in the winter months and Street dining should be limited May - October months. Also what is not needed is 4 season dining in these structures (walls. Heaters, etc) when restaurants have room inside. If eateries don't have room inside, shouldn't be taking public space

A few circles around the area, I always find a spot. It’s not any different than any other city. I like seeing people enjoying the outdoors. That’s why we live here.

NO, with all the info out there about scams, it is inexcusable for anyone savvy to be taken in by such. However, seniors are particularly vulnerable, and family should assist them in avoiding scams. I had to take away my mother's phone when she entered assisted living and later memory care.
