On July 4, the La Mirada Public Safety Team will be patrolling throughout neighborhoods to enforce fireworks and party regulations.  Residents are reminded to follow all City regulations.

The discharging of fireworks on City-owned property including parks, sidewalks and City facilities, is prohibited.  The use of “safe and sane” fireworks is only allowed on July 4 from 3 to 10 p.m.

Streets may not be blocked off for parties and large gatherings.  Residents hosting large parties that disturb the peace may be billed for the costs of breaking up the party. Individuals who discharge fireworks or conduct celebrations on private property without the owner’s permission will be cited.

Public drinking of alcoholic beverages and public intoxication are prohibited.  All laws will be proactively enforced.  Citations will be issued and arrests will be made for any violations.

Residents are encouraged to take an active part in reporting criminal activity.  To report a crime in progress, dial 911.  To report illegal fireworks or other criminal activity, call the La Mirada Community Sheriff’s Station at (562) 902-2960.
