MOTION: Tinajero SECOND: Benavides <br /> VOTE: AYES: Benavides, Tinajero <br /> NOES: None (0) <br /> Motion carries. <br /> AGENDA <br /> 2. Fireworks (Strategies to Ban Fireworks, Maintain Current Municipal Code or Modify <br /> the Municipal Code to Allow a Hybrid Model) —Commander Ken Gominsky {Strategic <br /> Plan Goal No. 1, 2d} <br /> Commander Ken Gominsky led a discussion regarding fireworks and provided a power point <br /> presentation. Staff was requested to analyze and examine Fireworks as they relate to the <br /> Strategic Plan's goal to expand community awareness of public safety activities, programs and <br /> services that focus on risk reduction. <br /> Commander Gominsky briefly summarized three options that the City may adopt as it relates to <br /> the issue of Fireworks: <br /> Option No. 1 —No alteration to the Municipal Code. SAPD and OCFA believe there will be no <br /> change and activity increases. State will not dispose of fireworks; the fee is $75,000 bringing the <br /> total cost to city to $188,590. <br /> Option No. 2 —Ban Fireworks in 2017. Same activity; costs may increase due to additional <br /> public outreach but then should begin to decline. <br /> Option No. 3 - Hybrid Model as adopted by Anaheim. Reduce number of fireworks stands or <br /> purchase at one predetermined location, identify areas where fireworks are legal and other areas <br /> where they are banned. Financial would be the same. Cmdr. Gominsky was not in support of <br /> this option. <br /> Motion: Bring Fireworks item to City Council for discussion. <br /> MOTION: Tinajero SECOND: Benavides <br /> VOTE: AYES: Benavides, Tinajero <br /> NOES: None (0) <br /> Motion carries. <br />
