Fort Worth will try using a network of cameras and license plate scanners this year to issue citations to people seen setting off fireworks within city limits.
Fire chief Jim Davis asked about using the cameras, which are monitored from the city's real time crime center, after some city council members pushed public safety agencies to write more citations to cut down on fireworks use.
Past proposals including a legal fireworks zone, or pre-emptive warnings sent out to addresses that draw complaints, haven't been tried or didn't have the support of city leaders.
