Frequently Asked Questions For the Fire Marshal
I live in an apartment or condo. Can I have a grill on my condo or apartment patio or balcony?
No. Current fire prevention regulations prohibit the use of an electric grill, a hibachi, a gas or charcoal grill, or other similar devices used for cooking, heating, or any other purpose on any balcony, under any overhanging portion, or within 10 ft. (3m) of any structure or stored on a balcony.   Even though some of these devices do not have an open flame, anything put on them to cook can become an open flame.
I am a homeowner. Can I have a fire in my backyard?
Yes, as long as the fire meets the requirements of the Air Pollution Control District (APCD).  Here is a link to their webpage on Recreational Fires.
Can I have a fire in my backyard anytime of the year?
Most likely yes. However, If the wind is blowing at 15 mph or higher or if there is an Air Quality Alert you may not burn.  Please refer to the APCD Recreational Fires webpage.
