Citizens in Sedro-Woolley will have to hold their fire until the Fourth of July.
Although fireworks are being sold within city limits, a Sedro-Woolley city ordinance states fireworks can only be lit within city limits on the Fourth of July from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m.
The ordinance was enacted a couple years ago as a compromise, said Mayor Mike Anderson.
“I’m all for celebrating the Fourth of July,” Anderson said. “But in a safer, more considerate way for neighbors and animals.”
