Judging by the comments, the man was cooking at home, then selling in a neighborhood parking lot. I can see were I would NOT want a neighbor of mine commercially cooking on a daily basis. Should have went after him for a zoning violation (commercial business in residential neigborhood, etc....)not the B-B-Q smell.
However.....
This type of ordinance came into question last year in a Pittsburgh neighborhood when the cat lady complained that the charcoal traditionalist spent way to much time at his B-B-Q. She thought he should only be allowed to B-B-Q a set number of nights per week, and insisted he use a cleaner burning propane.
I think this was the neigborhood....
ยง1107. Smoke.
A. The maximum amount of smoke emission permitted shall be determined by the use of the Standard Ringelmann Chart issued by the United States Bureau of Mines or most recent industry standard. No smoke of a shade darker than No. 2 shall be permitted.
What does that mean??????
The "I am going to die from second hand smoke" crowd will have us all boiling our curds,whey & soybean burgers on solar stoves if they have their way.
