Chairman Lovett opened the hearings for PUBLIC COMMENT. Dion Custis, attorney and representative for Jurassic Fireworks, spoke on this item. He noted that any delay would cause financial injury to his client because of it being a seasonal permit, and he would like it to proceed as soon as possible.
