(WNY News Now) – JAMESTOWN, NY – July 2, 2024 – As the Fourth of July approaches, the City of Jamestown reminds all residents that fireworks are illegal in New York State. The City urges  everyone to celebrate safely and legally by attending fireworks shows at locations with proper  approval for launching fireworks. 

Fireworks, firecrackers, and bottle rockets are not only illegal but also a significant nuisance. The City has received numerous complaints at both City Council meetings and the Mayor’s  office. The City requires that all residents respect their neighbors and the law by not using  personal fireworks. 

The City of Jamestown will have officers, including the nuisance officer, keeping a close watch  on neighborhoods throughout the Fourth of July holiday. Violations will be strictly enforced to  ensure the safety and peace of our community. 

For more information, please contact The Mayor’s Office at 716-483-7600 or email  mayor@jamestownny.gov.
