Rouse, President <br />South Bend Common Council <br />455 County-City Building <br />South Bend, IN 46601 <br />RE: Fireworks Regulation Ordinance <br />Dear Council President Rouse: <br />Attached please find a copy of a bill which has been filed with the Clerk's office for <br />consideration by the South Bend Common Council amending Chapter 13, Article 4, Section 13-59 of <br />the South Bend Municipal Code regarding consumer fireworks to add definitions, prohibit use on <br />certain days and during certain times, and add fines for violations. <br />The unrestricted use of consumer fireworks has become a quality of life issue for South <br />Bend's residents.
