<br />Orozco, Norma <br />From:Adrienne Flynn <cairish1017@gmail.com> <br />Sent:Thursday, June 18, 2020 4:11 PM <br />To:eComment <br />Subject:Fireworks <br />I would appreciate anything done to reduce, restrict or, preferably, eliminate use of fireworks in Santa Ana. <br /> <br />I have lived on Greenville & Macarthur for 32 years. For the past 6-8 weeks, the quantity of fireworks that are <br />set off seems to have greatly increased compared to prior years as we approach the 4th of July. There is no <br />pattern, but it has been occurring many times during week nights and occasionally during the day. Someone <br />nearby frequently sets off fireworks that have one LOUD boom, in addition to others that hiss, pop & <br />crackle. It sounds like they're close by, & coming from the large duplex/fourplex apartment complex located <br />between Greenville & Fairview, & south of MacArthur. Note: For many years, the annual 4th of July & New <br />Year's Eve fireworks sounds I hear seem to come from that same area, also. <br /> <br />I'm accustomed to the fireworks around the 4th of July...a few weeks before & a few weeks after. However, <br />this is becoming ridiculous & aggravating. MANY people are currently on the Next Door website, expressing <br />their concerns as well. I empathize w/those who have frightened children & distressed animals on <br />sedatives. Having been burned on the forehead & scalp by faulty fireworks, I am concerned about the dangers. <br /> <br />What you have in a firework is an explosive missile. Get too close to it and it could burn <br />you badly, disfigure you for life, or even kill you. Every year, millions of dollars of damage <br />is done by stray fireworks setting fire to property. <br /> <br />I appreciate your consideration. <br /> <br />Adrienne Flynn <br /> <br />1 <br />
