Don Johnson, former John son Chemical owner, opened the first fireworks stand inside the city after a ban on most fireworks. With a transient merchant license and temporary-use permit, he sold sparklers and smoke bombs to families, drawing kids Nick Jaimez and Lucas Ingraham. A New Year’s sale is planned.

Fireworks ban prompts education effort despite county split
Police and officials push fireworks education as Lawrence enforces a new ban while Douglas County members largely abstain. Despite restrictions, personal use remains legal in parts of the county from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Wednesday and Thursday and to midnight Friday, with enforcement treated as low priority and residents urged to call 911 for violations.
