Authorities douse vendor’s bid to sell fireworks
A local fireworks vendor’s bid to sell legal fireworks in Douglas County was denied last week by Douglas County commissioners and a district court judge. On June 20, Highlands Ranch resident and owner of Discount Fireworks Tom Coulson and his attorney, Qusair Mohamedbhai, asked county commissioners Mike Maxwell and Steve Boand for an immediate hearing on the denial of Coulson’s seasonal use permit. County commissioner Melanie Worley was not in attendance.
