Spring Hill adopted resolution 2025‑R‑12 to allow consumer fireworks discharge July 2–5 from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. and New Year's Eve/Day December 31–January 1 from 11 p.m.–12:30 a.m.
The Spring Hill city council on May 22 approved resolution 2025‑R‑12 establishing legal dates and times for the discharge of consumer fireworks in 2025.
Staff recommended a four-day July discharge period because Independence Day falls on a Friday this year. The adopted schedule authorizes discharges from July 2 through July 5 between 8 a.m. and 11 p.m. The resolution also authorizes consumer fireworks discharge for New Year’s from 11 p.m. on Dec. 31 to 12:30 a.m. on Jan. 1.
Staff said the item was pulled from the consent agenda for discussion but councilmembers indicated general support for a shorter discharge window. The motion to approve the resolution passed 3–0–0.
