Using grills on back porches and balconeys in all apartments and
condos in Virginia. Many are made of wood so I suppose too many fires
started by charcoal grills. Moot in my apartment complex as my
balcony walls are brick, the ceiling and floor is concrete and the
railings are iron. No matter though....they are illegal to use here
too. My apartment even took the new law a bit further and announced
that they would confiscate any grills spotted out on the balconies. I
felt sorry for the neighbors that had nice expensive gas grills. I
only had a small dome-top weber charcoal grill.
