Not to mention "it's not grilling season". What does that mean? I
live in Minnesota and it's never not grilling season.

95% of the population? Do you have to have a Texas birth
certificate to be exempt, or what? Git a rope!

No exemptions, even in Texas.
Even here, open flames are not allowed on apartment patios.
I don't have a solid number of the people in NYC living in apartments,
but I would bet it is substantial.

In NYC, they close the streets off for block parties about twice a year.
That's when the grills come out.

Would you believe, electric smoker?

When I lived in an apartment, there was a common patio area with a
gas grill for residents to use.

Why would that be illegal? There are no open flames. No flames at
all, even.

There is a place a few blocks from here called Pollo A La Brasa.
http://www.yelp.com/biz/pollo-a-la-brasa-gardena

They cook chicken over a wood fire. I think that is all they do.
After a delivery, their wood pile outside is nearly as large as
their building. Many, many times I have driven past and the smell
of wood smoke is generally quite intense.

It's rather pleasant, actually, driving by, but I think I would hate
to live in the apartments across the street. But the place is in
Gardena on the west side of the street, and the east (downwind) side
of the street is Los Angeles, so perhaps the people living there
have no say over things.
