Dear Mayor Helen Tran,
I urge you to OPPOSE the last-minute moratorium on Safe and Sane fireworks in San Bernardino. This rushed
decision:
• HURTS LOCAL CHARITIES that depend on fireworks sales for funding.
• COSTS THE CITY & POLICE revenue from pre-paid permits.
• BREAKS TRUST with residents by ignoring community traditions without fair notice.
Families have celebrated responsibly for decades don't punish them for the actions of a few. Please vote NO on the
ban and find better solutions!
Sincerely,
Earl Benjamin
