Memorial Day weekend marks the unofficial start of summer, and it looks like the weather might allow us to be outside!

You may want to celebrate with fireworks this weekend.  We encourage you to know the laws related to fireworks before you spend the money and can't use them in the township. 

Here are a few reminders: 

 What type of fireworks are allowed in Lower Moreland Township? 

According to Township Ordinance 106- 3. Restrictions on all Fireworks.

1. The use of fireworks, whether consumer or display, shall be strictly prohibited at any location within 150 feet of any structure, property line, vehicle or roadway.

(TRANSLATION: NOT MANY LOCATIONS, IF ANYWHERE, IN THE TOWNSHIP)

2. The use of any fireworks shall be prohibited within any closed structure, building or tent.

3. The use of any fireworks shall be prohibited in any Township Park unless approved by the Board of Commissioners.

We want everyone to be safe during the Memorial Day weekend and throughout the year. 

We recommend you consider going to professional fireworks displays in the region (not to mention they are usually FREE!)
