Happy New Year - 2026 Fireworks, Safety, and Community Responsibility

A Message to All Homeowners

As we enter a season often marked by celebration, family gatherings, and patriotic pride, fireworks can feel like a natural expression of joy. However, with that celebration comes responsibility. Our shared goal is to protect lives, property, and the peace of our community.

Fireworks—whether handheld or aerial—pose real risks. Each year, fires, injuries, and property damage occur in residential neighborhoods due to improper use. Noise disturbances can also deeply impact veterans, seniors, pets, children, and homeowners who work early hours. A moment of excitement should never outweigh the safety and well-being of our neighbors.

Why Fireworks Are a Serious Concern
•Fire Risk: Sparks and embers can ignite roofs, dry landscaping, fences, or nearby wooded areas.
•Personal Injury: Burns and injuries often occur when fireworks malfunction or are handled improperly.
•Noise Disturbance: Loud explosions can cause distress for pets, veterans with PTSD, and residents seeking rest.
•Property Damage: Misfired fireworks can damage homes, vehicles, and common areas.

Our Community Standard

Our neighborhood is a shared space. Every home reflects a collective commitment to safety, respect, and consideration. Fireworks—especially those not permitted by local ordinance—put that commitment at risk.

We encourage residents to celebrate responsibly by:
•Enjoying professional fireworks displays hosted by local municipalities.
•Choosing safe, quiet alternatives that do not involve open flames or explosives.
•Being mindful of neighbors, pets, and vulnerable residents.


Official Notice to All Homeowners

Fireworks & Community Safety Reminder

For the safety of all residents and to preserve the peace and integrity of the community, homeowners are reminded that:
•The use of fireworks in residential areas can create safety hazards and disturbances.
•Fireworks that cause excessive noise, pose fire risks, or endanger people or property are strongly discouraged.
•Homeowners may be held responsible for any damage, injuries, or disturbances resulting from fireworks used on or near their property.
•Please follow all applicable local laws and community guidelines regarding fireworks.

Let us celebrate with wisdom, restraint, and respect—protecting not only our homes, but the harmony that makes our community a place of pride.

Thank you for your cooperation and continued commitment to community safety.
