In Anaheim, the possession, sale or use of fireworks without a permit is prohibited by law. Anaheim fire and police teams will be patrolling the City the night of July 4, issuing citations for illegal fireworks. Use of the 311 customer service hotline allows police and fire dispatchers, who staff the City´s 911 call center, the opportunity to properly attend to life-threatening emergencies.
