4th of July Reminder

We would like to remind everyone to please be safe and courteous during your 4th of July celebrations. Click here to view a list of legal/illegal fireworks and when fireworks can be used from the Poulsbo Police Dept.: https://cityofpoulsbo.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/PPD-Fireworks-Safety-Dos-and-Donts.pdf and here from Kitsap County: https://www.kitsapgov.com/dcd/Pages/Kitsap-County-Fireworks-Information.aspx . With it being dry and hot, fire danger is high. Be sure to water down your properties in the evening of the 4th and keep a water hose/fire extinguisher on hand while lighting fireworks. Be careful when purchasing fireworks at the local reservations. What is legal on the reservation is not necessarily legal in Poulsbo. We recommend purchasing your fireworks from a tent within city limits to avoid accidental purchases of illegal fireworks. AERIALS ARE NOT ALLOWED! If you are unwilling to shoot a firework over your house, DO NOT shoot it over your neighbors’ house. In addition, please remember for many of our neighbors, July 5th is a work day. The City of Poulsbo allows fireworks on the 4th until 11pm. We ask that all celebrations be done by that time to allow those who have to work an opportunity to get some sleep. Please keep in mind, we all live close together and your actions affect everyone around you. Having a good time on the 4th of July should not come at the expense of others. Be kind and courteous, and above all, safe this holiday! Happy 4th of July!
