Roseville increases penalties for illegal fireworks
Illegal fireworks carry many risks, including injury, property damage, safety of first responders, costs of responding to emergencies, environmental harm and legal consequences.
In May 2024, the Roseville City Council amended the municipal code, making penalties for those who use illegal fireworks much more severe starting this year.
Penalties for illegal fireworks include stiffer fines, more severe legal consequences, liability for the cost of emergency response and additional responsibility of property owners who knowingly allow the use or storage of illegal fireworks on their property.
