Private Fireworks Prohibited In San Marcos

As San Marcos residents prepare for New Year’s celebrations, they are reminded that private fireworks are prohibited in and around San Marcos.

 

The City Fire Code prohibits “the sale, possession, storage, discharge or offer for sale of fireworks” in the city limits.

 

The penalty for violating the ordinance, part of the fire safety code, includes fines of up to $2,000.

 

The City Marshal’s Office and the San Marcos Police Department will be on the lookout for violations and will enforce the code. To report illegal fireworks in San Marcos, call the police non-emergency number at 512.753.2108.
