As always if you have any questions please contact AA or a board member
From Summer 2012
Given our recent legal opinion combined with a direct discussion with the NJ DCA, the Board has ascertained and will implement the following regarding grills in the community:
Natural gas grills properly installed and with the proper town permits are permitted in the community and storage is allowed on the decks.
LNG or propane grills are not permitted to be used or stored within 5 feet of a combustible surface. This includes storage in the home or garage. As a result propane grills are not permitted in the community. This has been a community rule since inception and will be enforced. Propane is specifically called out in NJ law. If you have a propane grill, please remove it. We understand this is an inconvenience and expense but they have not been and will not be permitted in the community.
Open flame devices (Tiki torches, candles, hibachis, etc.) are not to be used within 5 feet of any combustible surface.
If you do not have a permit for your gas line, please get one promptly.
We will be contacting Stafford Township for a list of permits and fines will be issued for lack of permits. The board is pleased to have clarity and certainty regarding this issue.
It has been a lengthy process to achieve this, but our goal of certainty has been achieved. As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to contact AA or a board member. We will also be available to discuss this topic at our next open board meeting.
Thanks again for your cooperation and we hope you are having an enjoyable summer.
