I live in an apartment and I was told I cannot grill on my balcony. Is there a regulation prohibiting this?
Yes, the use of open flame grills is prohibited if within 15 feet of an apartment building. This includes propane grills as well as charcoal grills. Small electric grills that do not produce an open flame are allowed under the fire code, however, they may be prohibited by the building management company.
