Personal-use fireworks banned in Dubois

(Dubois, WY) – At the June 24 regular meeting, the Dubois Town Council announced that there would be a ban on personal fireworks going into the July 4 celebrations.

“Based on the recommendation of Fire Chief (Mike) Franchini, it was moved, seconded, and carried to declare a severe fire threat within the town limits and institute a ban of the personal use of fireworks,” the meeting minutes state.

The ban aligns with Riverton’s decision to ban personal-use fireworks on July 4, as well as the County land fire/fireworks restrictions that went into effect on June 29. As of this writing, Lander and Shoshoni are still allowing fireworks.

For any questions, the Town of Dubois can be reached by calling (307) 455-2345 or emailing dubois@wyoming.com.
