This will be a proximity fireworks display, which is different than the City sponsored event on July 4 th BACKGROUND In addition to RCW 70.77, Tukwila Municipal Code 8.12.20 regulates fireworks within the City. TMC requires that the City Council approve all public displays under TMC 8.12.20. b. The application was received more than 14 days prior to the proposed display, has been investigated by the Fire Marshal's Office and found to comply with the requirements listed in RCW 70.77. This display will be set up and discharged by Western Display Fireworks out of Oregon. Western Display Fireworks is a fourth generation family -owned business with over 60 years of experience. They have produced some of the largest displays in the Northwest including the Tacoma Freedom Fair, 4th of July- Iver's, Melaleuca Freedom Celebration (Idaho Falls, ID) and Fort Vancouver, as well as hundreds of other displays throughout the year. Western Display Fireworks has been producing the pyrotechnics for both the Seattle Seahawks and Seattle Sounders at Century Link stadium since 2005. The proposed pyrotechnics for the Seattle Sounders at the Starfire Soccer Complex are to include concussion mortars at the kickoff of the game, mines and concussion mortars for each Sounders goal, and in the event the Sounders win a 60 -90 second blast of concussion mortars, mines, crossettes, and bombettes. With proximity fireworks we will not have the fallout associated with the display type fireworks used for the 4th of July show, and the size of the shells will be smaller requiring a smaller restricted area. The display area is indicated on the attached map with the labeled areas. I have also included a Starfire site map for the whole complex for reference. Given the location of the display the Fire Marshal's office will require 2 additional fire watch personnel on site, available to respond to any problem. Starfire will be providing off -duty Tukwila Police for crowd control, in addition to crowd control staff from Century Link stadium. 102 INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 ANALYSIS This will be the first time for a display of this type at the Starfire stadium and the proximity fireworks which are designed for this type of application will provide the highest possible safety for the spectators. Fire will inspect the fireworks display area and pyrotechnics prior to the discharge to ensure all applicable safety standards are adhered to. RECOMMENDATION The Council is being asked to consider this item at the August 22, 2011 Committee of the Whole meeting and Special meeting.
