Related Topics: Fireworks, Risk

So far, this year has seen fewer blazes, but the dangers remain with tinder-dry conditions and high temperatures.

On this week’s episode of “Trib Talk,” Rep. Jim Dunnigan, R-Taylorsville, and former Cottonwood Heights Mayor Kelvyn Cullimore join reporter Benjamin Wood to discuss the pros and cons of fireworks, and whether the state Legislature or individual city governments are best positioned to regulate pyrotechnic displays.
