Sandy residents eager to celebrate the 4th of July with barbecues and fireworks this summer may want to double-check that they’re not breaking a new Sandy City ordinance that expands the area within the city where fireworks are prohibited. During this year’s Utah state legislative session, the legislature passed House Bill 38, which granted cities more autonomy in how they restrict fireworks within their city. While it did not allow cities to ban them completely, many Wasatch Front cities are taking advantage of the bill by cutting down on when and where fireworks can be set off, including Sandy.
