2004 Approval of 4th of July Fireworks Contract
The City of Chanhassen has contracted with Melrose North Pyrotechnics to
provide fireworks for the 4th of July Celebration for many years. Melrose has
always provided a safe and quality show for the contracted amount.
In previous years, the city sought quotes from other fireworks companies looking
for new ideas for the show. Unfortunately, no other company has been able to
match the show quality that Melrose provides. Staff has felt very comfortable
with the safety and quality products Melrose has provided to the City.
This year, proposals were received from Melrose North Pyrotechnics and
Arrowhead Fireworks Co., Inc. For your convenience, I have included each
company's proposal so that you may compare the type of show each company is
proposing.
RECOMMENDATION
It is staff's recommendation that the City Council approve the contract with
Melrose North Pyrotechnics in the amount of $21,000. The display will take
place on Sunday, July 4 at 10:00 p.m. at Lake Ann Park. The cost of the 2004
fireworks display is included in Fund 1600 of the 2004 recreation program
budget. This is the same price as the 2002 & 2003 displays.
