FYI...this is NATIONAL law....
When they ban fire, people will die.
Seattle lives up to its Soviet reputation. How positively un-American!

State officials may still revisit the ban, as well as another regulation buried in the code: a ban on cut Christmas trees in apartments, meeting halls, stores, jails, schools, hospitals, day cares, and churches.
Funny thing, Pennsylvania just adopted the International Building Code state-wide in April... Wonder what's going on that states as jumping at state-wide regulations like this. Federal $$$ being dangled? Or some punitive action threatened (like ineligibility for Fed $$$)?
Relax - this is wise. A lot of people are sloppy and start fires, especially in small patios on apartments or condos.
My apartment complex forbids it also, and I think it is a good idea. We have several grilling areas set aside in the complex which is very thoughtful and nice, and gets a good workout often. It's the smart was to do it and much safer.
