Introduced by Mayor Rinker and Council <br />as a Whole. (First Reading - December 16, 2013) <br /> <br />This Ordinance was left on Second Read. <br />Mr. Christian asked, what is the ordinance? I was . here for the First Reading. No one said <br />anything about it. They just read it off. What is the ordinance? <br />Chief Carcioppolo replied, the Fire Code permits these portable units to be within a certain <br />distance as long as they are UL listed. Ordinance Review Board has approved this. I can make <br />you a copy of the ordinance. <br />Mr. Christian asked, is it saying you can't have them? <br />Chief Carcioppolo replied, the Code doesn't pernut the units to be a chiminea. It has to be <br />within a certain distance of a residential property. If we go to an open burning complaint and <br />you have a chiminea and it's too close to your home, we can have you move that within an <br />appropriate distance away from your home so that it won't potentially light your house on fire. <br />Does that make sense? <br />Mr. Christian replied, yes. <br />Mr. Delguyd stated, the ordinance allows us to comply with the Code. <br />Mr. Christian asked, how far away from the house do you have to be? <br />Chief Carcioppolo replied, if it is UL listed for a certain distance, whatever that UL listing is <br />would allow that to be up to that distance from your home. <br />Council President Buckholtz added, there's probably a chart in the State Code that says, number <br />of btu's.
