It would not allow new permits to be issued for tent sales of fireworks or even sparklers.
City leaders said the move is in response to a company getting a permit to sell sparklers but it ended up selling fireworks not covered by that permit.
Oviedo will hold a public hearing on the proposed temporary ban later in April.
