In what appears to be a turf battle brewing between temporary and permanent firework retailers, this legislation increases regulations on temporary fireworks stands and requires that these stands pay a $500 license fee to the county or city for each stand location within the jurisdiction. The license is only valid from June 18 through July 6, and December 20 through January 1 of following year, renewed annually. On the other hand, counties could not restrict the location of permanent fireworks retail stores - unless such prohibitions are consistent with the U.S. Constitution.

This legislation allows local legislation permitting county ordinance violations that deal with the condition of real property to be served by leaving a copy of the citation at the property, mailing a copy to the property owner shown in the records of the tax commissioner or tax assessor, and filing a copy with the magistrate court clerk.  If the owner of the property fails to attend the trial, a fine against the property (i.e., "in rem") is the only penalty permitted.
