Concerning measures to improve public safety through the modification of the regulation of fireworks.

Bill Summary:



The act clarifies that it is unlawful for a person who is licensed as a retailer, display retailer, wholesaler, or exporter of fireworks to sell, offer for sale, expose for sale, possess with intent to sell, deliver, consign, give, or otherwise furnish fireworks outside the scope of what the license permits.

The act amends requirements for an exporter to sell certain fireworks for transport in the purchaser's vehicle so that it is unlawful unless the purchaser displays to the exporter a valid motor vehicle driver's license and a valid wholesale, retail, or resale license number issued by a state or local authority located outside of Colorado. The exporter is required to record the motor vehicle driver's license number and the wholesale, retail, or resale license number.
