The Kewanee Fire Department has lifted the fire ban for open burning and legal fireworks due to the recent rainfall and milder weather conditions.  Residents will be allowed to have backyard fire pits and small fires for recreational use and allow small fireworks such as sparklers, smoke bombs and snakes.  Illegal fireworks that have not been allowed in the City of Kewanee will remain illegal and subject to current ordinance violations.  “The Kewanee Fire Department, along with the entire City of Kewanee, wish all residents of Kewanee a happy 4th of July.”
