2000 Fireworks Contract, Annual 4th of July Celebration
The City of Chanhassen was pleased with the fireworks show provided by Melrose
Pyrotechnics at last year's Fourth of July Celebration.
1 have tentatively spoken with Melrose Pyrotechnics about this year's show and
have given them our $20,000 budget figure to work with for 2000. I was pleased
with the show last year and I feel comfortable with Melrose's staff, their safety
standards and their reputation of providing a quality show.
RECOMMENDATION
It is staff's recommendation that the City approve the contract for Melrose
Pyrotechnics in the amount of $20,000. The display will take place on Tuesday,
July 4, 2000, at 10 p.m. at Lake Ann Park. The cost of the 2000 fireworks display
is included in Fund 145 of the recreation program budget.
