HOLLAND, Mich. – The Ottawa County Parks and Recreation Department is warning people that using fireworks in parks is prohibited without prior permission.

The warning comes after a fire burned through the dune grass at Tunnel Park on Monday.

In 2015, a fire that was accidentally set by fireworks destroyed a dune staircase.
