Date:June 13, 2017
Subject:Road Closures for July 4th Fireworks Show
Recommendation
1.Approve temporary road closures as identified in the July 4th Fireworks Traffic Plan on July
4, 2017, from 8:30 p.m. to 20 minutes following the fireworks.
Background
On July 4, 2016, the City held a Fireworks Spectacular on Lake Elsinore, which included a “View
by Boat” fireworks show over the lake. Services were provided by Pyro Spectaculars, Inc. located
in Rialto, California. Pyro Spectaculars also performs the same service for many surrounding
communities including Diamond Stadium. As part of the festivities, staff offered pre-entertainment
at Lakepoint Park including music, vendors and a great viewing area to experience the fireworks
show.
Each year, the production is enjoyed by more and more residents and guests and KOLA Radio
99.9 broadcast a radio simulcast for the Fireworks show which lasted approximately 18-20
minutes. In addition to those enjoying the show on the shore, limited boaters have the opportunity
to experience the Fireworks on the Lake, launching from La Laguna and other docks around the
Lake. The Lake Elsinore Storm will not be playing a home game at Diamond Stadium that evening
so there will not be conflicting firework shows.
Discussion
The Sherriff’s Department, Fire Department, Public Works Department and Community Services
Department will coordinate resources to ensure the festivities of the Fireworks Show is a fun and
safe event. As the program has expanded year after year, this year’s In order to ensure the safety
of the participants, staff is recommending the street closures identified on Attachment A that will
be enforced with a combination of City Public Works staff and Law Enforcement.
