Blythe DATE: February 15, 1993 RE: Pyrotechnic Permit I have attached a copy of a message from Mike Tapp in which he indicated that he was never contacted for site inspection prior to the event. So that this does not happen again, I would like to suggest that this permit be signed by Mike Tapp prior to being signed by Moses Carey or another thing we could do is to levy a large fine for not doing as specified in the permit. These are only two suggestions. I am certainly open to your suggestions on how we can prevent this from happening again. We need to decide and then write to UNC and let them know. I still feel we need an ordinance regulating fireworks and pyrotechnics. Last time I said this I didn't get any support. Please call me. Thank you.
