A. Use Restricted During Drought:
1. This subsection is adopted pursuant to New Mexico Statutes Annotated sections 60-2C-1 through 60-2C-11 and is enforceable only if the city council issues a proclamation declaring a condition of extreme or severe drought following the procedures established in New Mexico Statutes Annotated section 60-6C-8.1, and is enforceable only during the period of time in which the proclamation is in force and effect. Any dissolution or suspension of a proclamation serves to stay enforceability of this subsection and shall not operate to repeal or suspend this subsection.
2. This subsection is in addition to any ordinance the city council may adopt concerning aerial devices and ground audible devices, in accordance with New Mexico Statutes Annotated section 6-2C-7, and shall not be construed as a limitation of the terms of any such ordinance.
3. The use of missile type rockets, helicopters, aerial spinners and stick type rockets, as defined in New Mexico Statutes Annotated section 60-2C-2, is prohibited within the municipal boundaries of the city.
4. The use of any other permitted fireworks, as defined in New Mexico Statutes Annotated section 60-2C-2, not listed in subsection A3 of this section, is restricted to areas within the municipal boundaries that are paved or barren or that have a readily accessible source of water for use by the homeowner or general public.
