Reporting Illegal Fireworks
With the summer holidays approaching, the warmer weather, fire season, and school drawing to a close there will undoubtedly be people with more time on their hands. Often, it ends with mischievous behavior, if not outright illegal. One of the prevalent problems facing our community is the repeated use of fireworks. Fireworks in the City of San Jose are illegal!
Many in the community worked tirelessly with the City and law enforcement agencies to update the City’s laws and enforcement policies regarding the use of illegal fireworks.
The city is taking a slightly different approach this year. They are requesting to NOT report illegal fireworks via the police emergency or non-emergency phone numbers. Instead, they updated their 311 app to allow quicker and more efficient reporting of illegal fireworks.
-
- Use of the app in anonymous mode results only in data collection for trouble spots around the city, and no citations issued.
- However, if you log in to the 311 app, code enforcement will be notified and citations issued to the offending party

Hello, Neighbors.
We thank 650 neighbors who came and enjoyed pizza, ice cream, the Crimson Blues Band, Brian the Bubble Guy, and a Chalk Art contest. That’s an increase of 150 attendees over last year. See a couple of pictures of the event in this email.Our neighbors also got to meet and thank members of the San Jose Police Department and the California Highway Patrol, and of course, the firefighters and engines of Station 27 were again a big hit. We even got a fly-over and salute from an SJPD helicopter!In addition, we had visits from Mayor Matt Mahan, our Councilmember Arjun Batra, State Senator Dave Cortese, and County Supervisor Sylvia Arenas. We thank the over 25 neighborhood volunteers who made the event possible, setting up, taking down, and handing out pizza. We also encourage our neighbors to support the local sponsors who contribute much to the event.Helping again this year were the City of San Jose and Parks, Recreation and Neighborhood Services; PremierOne Credit Union; Grocery Outlet; Five Star Pizza, and Costco. We also welcomed two new sponsors: Starbucks and MedVet.National Night Out will return next year on Tuesday, August 6th. We hope to see many of you again then.

Upcoming CERT Events
Upcoming CERT Basic Training:

We are also offering our first Vietnamese CERT Basic Training beginning on Tuesday, October 25th. We could use help in pushing out to community members, partners, non-profits, etc. that might be interested in supporting or attending.
We are planning to do 2 CERT Basic Trainings every month for the remainder of our fiscal year ending on June 30th. Our goal is to get as many folks as possible trained up and empowered. Our focus this year will be to make sure everyone on our waitlist has had the opportunity to take it as well as a focus on other languages and vulnerable populations throughout San Jose. If you have any ideas on how to reach as many folks as possible, we would love to hear them!
