My post to Mpls. Issues recieved some good responses and some help from Julie Casey in licensing. Thanks Julie.
I guess the city council opted out of including fireworks enforcement in business licenses at this time. Licensing and CCP/SAFE are gathering data to determine how widespread the problem of sales to minors is before further action is taken on the issue. So, for right now, there is no way to go after a store that sells fireworks to children under 18 through licensing. However, she referred me to the city attorneys office. I wrote a letter and filed an official complaint. Don't know where this will get me, but, am willing to try. I will keep the list posted on my progress.
