Besides the fire danger I am a Viet Nam vet and after my last tour I had PTSD and the fire works would really set me off so now I still go tp bed on the 4th with ear plugs in.

Yes, to not ban fireworks when the conditions are so right for fires to burn and destroy homes from people who are just careless and inconsiderate warrants a ban. Allow profession fireworks, see the show, celebrate. Just humans being typically irresponsible specially when conditions are bad.

I'd rather my home didn't burn to the ground than light a couple sparklers.

I think we can do without a little pleasure for the sake of less fires and the public's health.

Yes fireworks have always been a problem, causing fires and injuries, not to mention noise pollution for people who go to bed early. With the fire danger in our area, I think it is terribly irresponsible to allow any fireworks in any county!!! Ban them! Ban them ALL!

I would support it, but it's pretty useless if police won't enforce it.

We need to be good little puppets. We need to go to work pay taxes and go home and close the door behind us. Get up and do it again. NOTHING ELSE!

No, that's going overboard!

This is ridiculous, that what independence day is all about is the fireworks, how about doing some forest management to prevent wildfires

If people would be more caustious and follow the current rules and regulations regarding fireworks we wouldn't have as much of an issue. Having small fireworks in the driveway and kids with sparklers is a huge fire hazzard especially if you're paying attention and have a hose ready just in case.

More potential for cheaper airfare/ more options for a single carrier to better take advantage of there air miles

The terminal expansion is exciting and so needed! This airport is nice already but expanding and updating it is necessary given the growing demand. My family and I use it regularly and we look forward to more travel options and amenities.

More & bigger planes? Huge power lines coming in basically to support data centers. Central Oregon is long gone from the gem it once was.

Not so far, but anyone with common sense should recognize such scams, tho they are getting more and more sophisticated. Mainly the seniors don't recognize such scams and are its victims.
