Charcoal grill fires within developed residential or commercial areas and fires within wood-burning stoves
Chimineas, fire pits and charcoal smokers on private property away from combustibles
Professional fireworks displays
Fire suppression or Fire Department training fires
Tiki torches and small recreational fires at developed picnic or campground sites. (Flames cannot exceed 4 feet in length and must be supervised by a responsible person who is at least 21 years old.)

People found to be in violation of these restrictions are subject to punishment of a $1,000 fine, 180 days in jail or both.
