All temporary stands for the sale of fireworks shall be located, maintained and operated subject to the following provisions: (c) No fireworks stand shall be located within a "residential zone" is hereby amended to read: "Regulations for Temporary stands.

Section 2. This Ordinance shall expire and terminate on July 4, 1991. Section 3. There exists within the City of Carson a limited number of suitable locations for the sale of fireworks. Many non-profit community organizations have planned for and applied for permits to operate fireworks stands in order to raise money for the community projects. Some of these organizations do not have suitable approved locations for such stands because the Business License Department under present regulations cannot issue permits for fireworks stands in residential areas. This ordinance will permit the City Council to allow such stands in residential areas if the Council finds and determines that such stands will not be detrimental or hazardous to the surrounding areas. This ordinance is therefore necessary for the public peace and safety, is an urgency ordinance and shall take effect immediately.
