Tyler Fire Department to Stand By at Local Fireworks Display
Posted/updated on: October 30, 2015 at 5:15 pmTYLER — Due to the potential for inclement weather this evening, representatives with the Grace Community School have advised that this evening’s homecoming football game will start earlier than originally planned. KETK lists a 6 p.m. start time for the contest. As a result, the after-game fireworks display may begin between 8:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m., instead of the previously scheduled time of 9:30 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. The Tyler Fire Department says it will have a unit on stand-by during the event to provide any needed services. Officials note that the display has been properly permitted through the city of Tyler and will comply with all state and local requirements. School representatives provided notification to the nearby neighbors and businesses to alert them of the event.
