FIREWORKS ARE PROHIBITED
The City of Placentia and the Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) wants to remind everyone that the sale, discharge or possession of fireworks is illegal in most areas of Orange County.

Those cities include Buena Park, Costa Mesa, Santa Ana, Garden Grove and Stanton. It is important to know that you cannot buy fireworks in those cities and then light them off in another city.
