All But A Handful Of Fireworks Displays Are Off This Year

DENVER (CBS4) - The fire danger in Colorado continues to range from very high to extreme, and more communities keep coming out with announcements that they won't have fireworks this year for Independence Day.

Glendale and Englewood on Thursday announced their 4th of July celebrations won't include fireworks, and some of the other holdouts -- Avon, Canon City, Louisville and Lafayette -- all have canceled their displays now.

So where will fireworks still happen? Here are the fireworks displays that are still a go, although city leaders in some areas are still considering the safety issues:

Gov. John Hickenlooper has banned open burning and fireworks in state areas and some counties, like Jefferson County, have gone one step further, banning the sale of fireworks in unincorporated areas of the county.

Communities want to keep people safe and protect homes. Even though fireworks are still being sold, police and sheriffs' departments say they will be strictly enforcing the ban and ticketing violators. They will be taking it very seriously this year with because of the current conditions.
