Homeowners are Reminded of Basic Safety Tips

Although a fun holiday, the Fourth of July can be dangerous, too!

Basic safety tips:

Fireworks: Fireworks are an integral part of any Fourth of July celebration! Always read directions for use, and only use one at a time. Fireworks should never be handled by children and should never be aimed or thrown at another person. Monitor windy conditions and avoid using fireworks near homes, dry grass, animals, or flammable materials. Proper disposal of fireworks includes dousing them in water before discarding them in an appropriate waste receptacle. Set off fireworks from within your own property, in doing so you assume all responsibility for any damage incurred.
Fireworks are not permitted to be set off within common areas including the area around ponds and the boat dock or on empty lots
Be courteous and notify neighbors before setting off fireworks, please be considerate to neighbors and pets – NO FIREWORKS after 10:00 pm.

Water safety: Many will be headed to lakes, pools, and rivers to beat the summer heat. Reminder to wear life-jackets, and to never swim alone if headed to a large outdoor body of water, as drowning can happen in a matter of seconds.
Grilling safety: Homeowners should never leave a lit grill unattended. When grilling, a fire extinguisher should be kept readily available. Avoid decorating near any grilling area and keep the grill at least 10 feet away from any structure.
Pet precautions: Many pets are afraid of loud noises. Reminder to homeowners to keep pets safe by leaving them inside to prevent them from running off and encountering harm once the festivities begin.

Johns Landing Homeowners Association Board of Directors wishes everyone a safe and happy Fourth of July!
