Good Evening,
My name is Janette Mckaig, I am resident of the 7th ward. I wanted to write in and ask when
fireworks are going to be taken seriously and banned in the City? Every night I hear them
going off in my neighborhood. In the middle of record heat and a drought, this is a recipe for
disaster. Is not having an 8-year-old child killed because of fireworks not enough? Have we
become so complacent that this is all in a day's work? This can has been kicked down the road
far too long. It is time to take action.
On another topic, I would like to commend Lt Korrell for doing an excellent job as Northern
District commander. She went well beyond her duties to serve our community. I wish her the
best of luck in her new district. She should teach classes about community outreach. I am sad
to see her go.
Thank-you,
Janette Mckaig Real Estate
