Use of Cooking Grills, Inflammables, and Explosives

Residents agree to only use grills in their respective yards at least 10 feet from the building. Any grill found in common areas (i.e., parking lots, etc.) will be removed and discarded.

Grills should be maintained in a clean and serviceable condition. Small grills (portable) must be dismantled and cleaned prior to storage. Gas grills may not be stored inside the apartment.

Residents must not store charcoal lighter fluid away inside the unit. Charcoal can be stored inside the apartments, but must be kept in a dry, cool area.

Coals must be placed in a bag for disposal. Coals may not be dumped anywhere on the apartment grounds.

Grills must be kept at least ten feet from the building and more than 25 feet from vehicles while the grill is in use. Under no circumstances shall a grill be used on or near a covered porch. Excessive heat can melt plastic panels used as porch overhangs and ceilings.

Under no circumstances can a grill be used in an enclosed area due to toxic fumes generated from charcoal and gas.

The storage of gasoline, kerosene and other -flammable or explosive material is prohibited, as well as the use -or possession of kerosene heaters.

Management is not liable for any damage or injury resulting from the Resident's use of cooking grills. Residents will be found responsible for any damage to buildings, grounds, etc., as a result of the improper use of grills. Management does not allow any construction of grills in the Resident's yard or on the premises.
