If you are planning on having a fireworks display for the Fourth of July holiday, you need to complete an Application for Fireworks Permit within the next few days. Town Ordinance 10-03 requires a Fireworks Permit be issued by the Fire Department prior to the display of the fireworks and the FD needs 15 days to process the application. Applications may be picked up at the fire department of police department.

The Police Department would like to remind all that fireworks in Rollinsford are illegal unless the user has first obtained a Fireworks permit from the fire department.
At this point it is too late to obtain a permit for the July 4 holiday. Illegal fireworks will be seized and the user subject to a fine. We encourage all to have a safe holiday.
