FROM: city staff
SUBJECT: Fourth of July Fireworks on state Beach
INTRODUCTION
This report is submitted in response to formal requests from the
Jonathan Club and the Sand & Sea/Beach Club, through the City's
Event Management Team, to conduct fireworks displays on the
Fourth of July on Santa Monica state Beach.
BACKGROUND
At its regularly scheduled meeting of October 11, 1983, the city
council established the policy that, aside from the municipally
sponsored Fourth of July Fireworks, Council approval would be
required for special fireworks events.
During the previous years in which the Jonathan Club and the Sand
& Sea/Beach Club have requested approval for fireworks displays{
they have consistently met all City permit requirements. During
the past year they requested and were granted city Council
approval for requests for Fourth of July Fireworks events.
This year all Clubs will again meet the required city safety
standards as established by the Fire Marshall. The Clubs will
also be required to name the city as additional insured on
insurance policies for the event which carry a minimum liability
of $5,000,000.
