The Fire Department enforces all fireworks related laws and ordinances. The three primary fireworks programs include Safe and Sane fireworks, public display shows and illegal fireworks enforcement.

Safe and Sane Fireworks

California approved Safe and Sane fireworks are allowed to be sold and used in the City of Roseville. They are illegal in the unincorporated areas of Placer County, including the community of Granite Bay. The City Council grants 15 fireworks booth permits each year to non-profit organizations meeting specific guidelines outlined in the fireworks ordinance.

Illegal Fireworks Enforcement

The Roseville Fire Department is a partner in the Sacramento Regional Fireworks Task Force. The Fire Department enforces a "zero tolerance" policy as it relates to sales, possession and use of illegal fireworks. Remember, any firework that flies in the air, darts across the ground or explodes is considered illegal in California. If it doesn't have the California State Fire Marshal seal on the packaging, it's illegal. The Fire Department utilizes fire investigators to aggressively enforce fireworks laws.
