While San Diegans are celebrating the unofficial start of summer, a San Diego City Council committee is considering whether some bonfire traditions at our area beaches are fair to neighbors.
Kenneth Hunrichs says bonfires on the beach were a tradition that he’s grown up with, so he opposes the possible ban.
“A lot of times people don’t put them out and then they smoke and stay hot, even if they bury them in the sand, and you can step on them. So it becomes a real danger,” said Hornung. “I know the proponents of this ban are claiming there's air quality issues and maybe in some areas there are where smoke collects, but the hot embers being stepped on, I think is pretty easily resolved by the city providing the right equipment at our beaches," said Hornung.
