Didn’t see the cost explained in the news article?
Professional fireworks require professional pyrotechnicians, mortars, the fire department, the police department, ambulances and rescue vehicles in the immediate vicinity on stand-by, security officials and public works department officials and employees to provide safety and crowd control, traffic control, and parking enforcement.

Under $200k is pretty good for a July 4 fireworks display. Up north it's much more expensive.
