Full Notification

As you continue having summer fun, please remember the use or possession of fireworks in the Town of Fairview is strictly prohibited (Ordinance 2014-40: Section 5601.1.3). The Fairview Fire Marshal enforces this prohibition, issuing citations for violations. Fireworks present hazards to the safety of residents and pets, as well as the natural beauty of the Town.
 
Many remember the fun and excitement of setting off fireworks as children; however, as parents and guardians, we must also consider the danger fireworks present to children’s safety, in order to prevent injury.
 
Hot Texas summers make for extremely dry conditions, which creates a fire hazard for the Town. Whether a faulty firework ignites an immediate flame or a spent firework casing causes a delayed blaze, things can get out of control very fast, especially in the windy North Texas region. Every year across the nation, huge amounts of property are damaged by fire, all of which could have been prevented.
 
Please help protect yourself, your family and the Town while having a safe and happy Independence Day!
