BACKGROUND The City of Tukwila has been sponsoring a family oriented 4th of July celebration for the last 14 years. This is one of the most successful City sponsored events in terms of public attendance and participation. This event will draw in excess of 5,000 people to the park to view and participate in the festivities scheduled by Parks and Recreation. DISCUSSION Parks and Recreation has retained the same fireworks company, Western Display Fireworks, Ltd., a company with 62 years of experience in public displays. We will use the same location as last year to avoid having to protect the sports turf fields in the northeast corner of the facility. This fireworks discharge location will be in the southwest corner of the facility on the natural grass fields. Additionally, the largest aerial shell will be 3"; this allows for a smaller safety perimeter. Western Display has also proposed several ground displays that the crowd will be able to see when looking south. FINANCIAL IMPACT This event is funded through the Parks and Recreation Department. RECOMMENDATION The Committee is being asked to forward this item to the June 20, 2016 Regular Meeting Consent Agenda. ATTACHMENTS Fireworks application and Western Display Fireworks, Ltd paper work Fireworks permit conditions 5 A 2- 'p-q 12 1908 ON of Tukwila Allen Ekberg, Mayor Fire Marshal's office Chris Flores, Interim Fire Chief Date: April 25, 2016 To: Interim Chief Flores From: B/C Tomaso, Fire Marshal Re: Public Fireworks Display Permit I have reviewed the permit application information provided by Western Display Fireworks, Ltd. They have applied for the permit for a public fireworks display at the Starfire Sports Complex, 14800 Starfire Way. Western Display is a licensed Pyrotechnic Company with the State of Washington. The display will be held in conjunction with the City's planned event, on July 4, "Family Fun at the Fort", being organized by the Parks and Recreation Department. This will be a 20 to 30 minute show starting at approximately 2200 hours. The fireworks will be transported to the site in the AM of July 4 and will be under the required supervision until they are discharged. The mortar tubes and support equipment will be brought to the location on July 4. The application was reviewed for adherence to the requirements under WAC 212-17 and accepted industry standards; we find everything is within these guidelines. The display will be held again in the Southwest corner of the facility. We will however, have a small portion of the 6720 Fort Dent Way Office building within the South edge of the fallout zone. Crowd control can be a potential issue, as the crowd that assembles to watch the fireworks show has increased every year. Last year the traffic leaving the site was managed with the available Tukwila Police on site and available patrol units. To mitigate these issues, I believe the following measures should be done: • Stage two fire apparatus at the site: one apparatus on each side of the river in order to cover the 6720 Fort Dent Office building. Apparatus shall be out of service during the display and for 30 minutes following the display. Fire Marshal's Office: 6300 Southcenter Blvd. Suite 209 a Tukwila, Washington 98188 • Phone: 206-575-4407 • Fax: 206-575-4439 r N City of Tukwila Page 2 Have Tukwila Police provide crowd control during the public display.
