Plymouth, MN Fire Regulations: Fireworks (2026)

Section 1110.01 of the Plymouth City Code makes it unlawful to sell fireworks in violation of Minnesota Statutes §§ 624.20 through 624.25, which the City adopts by reference, but allows the sale of 'legal fireworks' as defined in § 624.20 once the seller holds a City license. Section 1110.05 requires the license application to list the applicant's contact information, the sales address, the type and estimated quantity of legal fireworks to be stored on site, and proof of compliance with National Fire Protection Association Standard 1124 or an exemption from it. The City Clerk processes the application, the City Manager inspects the premises and issues the license if the location is properly zoned, and a denial can be appealed to the Council within ten days under § 1110.07.

Section 1110.09 conditions every license on non-transferability, public display of the license on-site, City inspection access during business hours, zoning-ordinance compliance including signage, and compliance with the State Building Code, State Fire Code, and NFPA 1124. Licenses run for a calendar year, with fees set in Chapter X at $350.00 for a fireworks-only retailer and $100.00 for other vendors carrying fireworks; a revoked license bars reapplication at that location or by that applicant for 12 months under § 1110.13. Separately, § 1110.15 requires any public fireworks display permit under Minnesota Statutes § 624.22 to skip the display on any Sunday through Thursday after 8:00 p.m. from the day after Labor Day through June 1, and mail notice to every property within 5,000 feet at least ten days before the show; City-run displays are exempt, and the display permit fee is $200.00 under § 1015.29.
