In response to the devastating effects of fireworks—fires, accidents, and the distress caused to countless pets—the local government is finally taking a stand. After unanimous approval, new measures to restrict the sale and purchase of fireworks in the municipality are set to take effect.
From today, January 17, 2025, the municipality will no longer authorize the sale of fireworks, with the sole exception of cold pyrotechnics. This move aims to mitigate the risks associated with traditional fireworks, which have proven hazardous to both public safety and animal welfare.
However, a law is only as good as its enforcement. It remains crucial for citizens to comply with these new regulations and for local authorities to diligently monitor and prevent illegal sales. Community cooperation is essential to ensure that the new policies effectively curb the unsafe use of fireworks.
