Home My WebLink AboutItem 12 & 13 - FireworksMEMO TO: FROM: MEETING DATE: SUBJECT: RECOMMENDATION: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER NOVEMBER 16, 2021 FIREWORKS APPROVAL PROCESS City Council to consider an ordinance amending the fireworks approval process and consider an application for a close -proximity fireworks show at the Carol of Lights. FUNDING SOURCE: N/A BACKGROUND: Attached is a report from the Fire Department on past fireworks requests and the approval process in Grapevine. Currently, groups who want to have fireworks displays in Grapevine, regardless of the type of show, are required to submit an application to the Fire Department where it is vetted based on National Safety Standards and, in some cases (mainly July 4th), must go to the State of Texas for approval before our Fire Marshal may approve. In the Historic District, staff would propose when any fireworks show is requested to be held within the Township boundaries, after being vetted by the Fire Marshal, that it be placed on an agenda for City Council approval at a regular meeting. In addition, staff proposes to improve the fireworks communication process by using Code Red to notify residents within a half -mile radius of a fireworks show. For large fireworks shows, we will continue to notify the public using social media (Facebook, NextDoor, Twitter and e-News). Finally, we would request that City Council consider an application from the City of Grapevine for a 7-minute, close -proximity fireworks show from the roof of City Hall on November 22 at the Carol of Lights event. The application is attached. The Fire Chief has reviewed it and found that it meets all applicable standards. '2111119 11:37 AM REGULATION OF FIREWORKS FIREWORKS DISPLAYS GRAPEVINE FIRE DEPARTMENT BY BRYAN K. PARKER '2111119 11:37 AM Overview The Grapevine Fire Department is the local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) for the permitting, storage and inspecting of fireworks and fireworks displays. Authority and enforcement are provided through the City of Grapevine, Texas Code of Ordinances (Article IV. - Fireworks); NFPA (2014 edition), International Fire Code (2015 edition) and the State Fire Marshal's Office (Texas Occupation Code — Chapter 2154 & Texas Administrative Code - Section 34.800). Fireworks are defined as a composition or device designed for entertainment to produce a visible or audible effect by combustion, explosion, deflagration, or detonation. The Grapevine Fire Department permits and inspects four different types of pyrotechnic displays. The four types are: 1. A 1.3G classification is a large firework primarily designed to produce visible and audible effects by combustion, explosion, deflagration, or detonation. This classification is given to the large fireworks and pyrotechnics that you see at the shows put on by the City of Grapevine on 4th of July. Training and special permits are required to possess or use fireworks of this grade. Fireworks must be permitted by the Grapevine Fire Department and the State Fire Marshal's Office. 2. A 1.4G classification is a smaller firework primarily designed to produce visible and audible effects by combustion, explosion, deflagration, or detonation. These explosives are consumer fireworks intended for use by the general public. Weddings at Paradise Cove and Fellowship Church are examples of 1.4G firework shows. A local permit is required for this type of firework. '2111119 11:37 AM 3. Close proximity fireworks are a hybrid product used when aerial shells are too large and indoor effects are too small. Most commonly seen at major sporting venues and corporate events, such as grand openings, where there is less separation between audience and effect. These types of fireworks are used on the top of City Hall. A local permit is required for this type firework. M 4. Indoor fireworks are category 1, which means they are as similar to safety concerns as party poppers. Indoor fireworks should be lit on a suitable surface and watched from a safe distance. These types of fireworks are a way to enhance grand entrances, first dances, and more. A local permit is required for this type of firework. '21/11/9 11:37 AM Quick Facts Based on 2018-2019 data, the Grapevine Fire Department permits and inspects an average of 19 different fireworks and firework displays per year. This average excludes Friday Night Fireworks provided by the CVB on Grapevine Lake. 6 - 1.3G shows 7 - 1.4G shows • 1 - combination of 1.3G & 1.4G show • 5 - indoor firework shows • Gaylord accounts for 42% of fireworks Fireworks by Classification ■ 1.3G IAG ■ Combo ■ Indoor '21/11/9 11:37 AM Permits and Inspections Permits for fireworks include • the name of the person, group, or organization sponsoring the production • date and time of day of the production • exact location of the production • name of the person actually in charge of firing the pyrotechnics • qualifications of the pyrotechnician • confirmation of any applicable state and federal licenses held by the operator or assistant(s) • evidence of the permittee's insurance carrier or financial responsibility • number and types of pyrotechnic devices and materials to be used • the operator's experience with those devices and effects, and a definition of the general responsibilities of assistants • diagram of the grounds or facilities where the production is to be held that shows the point at which the pyrotechnic devices are to be fired • the fallout radius for each pyrotechnic device used in the performance, and the lines behind which the audience is to be restrained • point of on -site assembly of pyrotechnic devices • manner and place of storage of the pyrotechnic materials and devices.
