Retail centers sell various fire pits /grills and landscapers incorporate fire pits in extensive landscape plans. Rosemount's ordinance does require that a permit be issued for open burning and this has been interpreted to include the use of fire rings or other types of fire pits that are not enclosed or screened. Based on this standard, those residents that use some of the commercially made fire grills, barrels or possibly chimneas are not required to obtain a permit. - Annually there are complaints received about recreational fires. The fire marshal estimates that he reserves approximately 4 or 5 complaints annually and that most of these complaints are actually regarding noise issues due to the socializing or partying that sometimes accompanies the use of a recreational fire. Occasionally, a fire permit is revoked by the fire marshal for failure to follow established rules; generally, this is for burning unapproved materials rather than for noise or smoke generation problems. The police department also receives several complaints annually about recreational fires. These complaints are most frequently not specifically about the fire, but about the noise level of those persons around the fire. Other complaints are occasionally received due to burning of leaves, building materials, brush or other items. These complaints frequently are about the size of the fire because of the materials being burned or because of the smoke generated by these items. Generally, residents are compliant in extinguishing a fire when the smoke is infiltrating a neighbor's home because of wind direction or when told not to burn inappropriate material. A resident of the Rosemount Woods Manufactured Housing Community has expressed concern over the last twelve months or more about recreational fires in her community. She has health problems that are exasperated by smoke. It is her belief that additional regulations should be in place for the manufactured housing park because of the limited lot sizes and resulting close proximity of recreational fires to others' homes. Beginning this year, Fire Marshal Lundy is intending to restrict the hours of recreational fires to 7 — 10 p.m. Sunday through Friday and 7 — Midnight on Saturday. This restriction appears to only be applicable through the permitting process. Because not all recreational fires require a permit, the fire marshal's proposal may not adequately address the noise issues of fires not requiring a permit. 2 f 6 -3 -1 6 -3 -4 CHAPTER 3 OPEN BURNING' SECTION: 6 -3 -1: Open Burning Prohibited 6 -3 -2: Adoption of Chapter 8, APC 8 by Reference 6 -3 -3: Permit Issuing Authority 6 -3 -4: Penalty 6 -3 -1: OPEN BURNING PROHIBITED: It shall be unlawful, a violation of this Chapter and a misdemeanor for any person to start or allow to burn any open fire on any property within the City without a permit, except for supervised recreational or cooking fires contained within approved fire rings, pits or barbecue grills. 6 -3 -2: ADOPTION OF CHAPTER 8, APC 8 BY REFERENCE: Chapter 8, State of Minnesota Air Pollution Control Rules, cur - rent edition, as amended May 18, 1976 is hereby adopted by reference and is made a part of this Chapter as if fully set forth herein; three (3) copies are on file with the City Clerk.
