SUMMARY: In Meridian, the temporary fencing around City Hall has been removed. Precision Fencing employees took down the galvanized fences on Tuesday afternoon. Initially, mesh fencing was installed early in 2023 for an exterior repair project involving the building's windows, walls, and roof. The galvanized fencing replaced the mesh in February to allow workers to complete the repairs. Now that the project is finished, the front entrance of City Hall will reopen to the public starting Wednesday.

On Tuesday afternoon, employees from Precision Fencing removed the fence from the front of the entrances after months of renovating the building.

SUMMARY: Last year, nearly 10,000 people were sent to the emergency room, and eight died due to firework injuries on July 4th, according to the US Consumer Product Safety Commission. Fireworks can also start fires if not used or disposed of correctly. Always read instructions and be prepared for any situation. Planning ahead can help you react more efficiently in emergencies. A critical aspect of firework safety is having a water source available, such as a hose, bucket, or fire extinguisher, to put out fires. Additionally, wearing eye protection is recommended when handling fireworks.
