As a retired inspector, I looked at the grill (if present) and its
fuel type and the method of hookup. If hard connected the grill had to
be fixed, but if an approved gas quick-connect and stop valve were
installed, the grill could be movable with approved hose/connectors
used.
Other jurisdictions may have other codes in place.
