The Signal Hill Police Department (SHPD) has announced that the hilltop area will be closed to all non-residential vehicular traffic on the 4th of July holiday beginning at 6pm. SHPD suggests that all individuals and families interested in viewing the aerial firework displays enjoy the view from the hilltop, but consider attending the shows at Veterans Stadium, The Queen Mary, or the Armed Forces Reserve Center in Los Alamitos, since hilltop space is limited.
SHPD is also reminding everyone that the possession, sale, and discharge of all types of fireworks, including “safe and sane” fireworks, are prohibited within the City of Signal Hill, and the law will be enforced.
Hilltop residents who are planning a party on the 4th of July should contact Sergeant Sagmit (562) 989-7222 ext. 80 or email at rsagmit@cityofsignalhill.org for information regarding hilltop access for themselves and their guests. Residents should make sure they have adequate parking for their guests as street parking will be limited, and street parking regulations will be enforced.
