If you're thinking that Baldwin Park will be a good place to watch some fireworks on the 4th of July, you better make some other plans.

That's because due to a budget deficit in 2013, there will not be a fireworks show at Sierra Vista High School like in 2012.

The city eliminated and cut recreational and service programs for residents in 2013 due to a projected deficit.

The city expected to save at least 337,850 dollars with the cuts.

Last year the show included an 18-minute custom designed, synchronized and choreographed sky concert.
