Should the City outlaw grilling on apartment balconies and decks?

Asked at Massachusetts Street on July 17, 2005

“Yes, they should. It's a fire hazard. Unattended fires can get out of hand with the grease and whatnot.”

“I don't think so, because I'm moving into an apartment this year, and I want to grill. As long as people are careful, it shouldn't be a problem.”

“No. I lived in a college town, and I don't see a problem with it as long as the people grilling take some responsibility.”

“I don't think that should be banned. You should be able to grill on your own deck. People should just be careful.”
