RE:  gas or coal grills are legal in multi-story apartment buildings.

Sorry to jump in late here.  The banning of grills in apartment
buildings has NOTHING to do with politics and everything to do with the
fire code.  This is a ban that has been around quite awhile.  Too many
idiots try to store their 'cold' ashes in paper bags, plastic bins, etc
and end up burning down the house.  Not so bad if you only manage to
take out yourself, as in a single family dwelling; very bad when it also
displaces several other families.  Propane cylinders have LONG been
illegal in apartment buildings in much of the country.  They have the
serious potential to level a good chunk of the building with little or
no chance of escape.  Just in my career, I'll bet I've been on no less
than 4 multi-alarm apartment fires caused by grills.
