Approval of this request requires a simple majority vote of those City Council members present. Staff has received a request from Americana Fireworks Display Company, on behalf of the Lake Minnewashta Fireworks Committee, to conduct a fireworks display from Minnewashta Regional Park on July 4 This application is similar to what has occurred for the past eight years and it meets Fire Code regulations. The following conditions have been communicated and agreed to by all concerned parties. If the wind is blowing from a northerly or westerly direction, or points in between (where it could blow debris over the swamp area), the show will be cancelled or re- scheduled to a pre- assigned rain date. This information would be included in a flyer that is mailed to lake residents by Beth Ginther, coordinator of the fireworks. The fireworks company will be responsible for making the decision if the display should be cancelled. I will make this condition very clear to them. 2. Carver County Parks Director, Marty Walsh and I would walk/drive the site prior to July 4 to inspect the drop down zone. With a unified decision that if the swamp land did burn, we (county parks and fire department) would let it burn itself out. There are natural fire breaks already there. We would patrol the perimeter and just observe. Actually we would be doing the park a favor by letting it burn all the dead grass and weeds. Chanhassen is a Community for Life - Providing for Today and Planning for Tomorrow Mr. Todd Gerhardt June 28, 2010 Page 2 A meeting with all concerned parties is planned in the near future. As in the past, the Fire Department will have a stand -by crew available at the site. Additionally, the group has provided a $2 million liability insurance policy covering this event. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of the request from Americana Fireworks Display Company for a fireworks display permit on July 4, 2010 at Lake Minnewashta Regional Park with the conditions noted above. Approval requires a simple majority vote of those City Council members present. g:\safety\ml\mwshtafireworkdisp laymemo A4 1 °R CERTIFICATE OF LIABILITY INSURANCE F6/9/2010 (DNYYY) THIS CERTIFICATE IS ISSUED AS A MATTER OF INFORMATION ONLY AND CONFERS NO RIGHTS UPON THE CERTIFICATE HOLDER.
