\"FIREWORKS<\/span><\/p>\n

Public Safety Officials from the City of Hiawatha want to remind you that the display and use of consumer fireworks are allowed in Hiawatha on a very limited basis during the times below. This does not include the display of commercial fireworks. It is important to remember that fireworks may only be used by someone age 18 or older, on their own property, or the property of someone that has consented to use. Do not assume you have permission. Fireworks cannot be used on streets, roads, or other public right-of-ways. That also means the use of fireworks is forbidden in all city parks without a permit. It is your responsibility to know what you are doing and what you are using is legal. The fine for violating any of these laws will be not less than $250.00. If you cause an injury, fire, or damage to property, you may be charged with additional crimes.<\/span><\/p>\n
