SEATTLE (AP) — The King County Council has narrowly voted to ban fireworks in unincorporated areas. KING-5 reports the ban passed with a 5-4 vote on Tuesday. It prohibits the retail sale and use of consumer fireworks in unincorporated King County. It will go into effect in 2022. Public firework displays will still be allowed with a permit from the fire marshal — with a limit of two displays per year on a property. According to South King County Fire & Rescue, more than 77% of county residents already live within city limits that have banned fireworks.
