Greetings from B & A Realtors 

Greetings!

 

 

Summer time means friends, families, and BBQ's!  

 

Please be aware of the standards for barbeques on balconies, patios, and decks of Multiple Unit Residences.    The fire season is upon us and all jurisdictions in Santa Clara County have adopted the Fire Code regulations for barbeques.

 

Charcoal burners and other open-flame cooking devices shall not be operated on combustible balconies or within ten (10) feet of combustible construction.

 

There is a code - CFC Section 308.3.1.  For further information on how to properly store or use in your neighborhood, please check with your local fire department.

 

Happy BBQing and please be SAFE...

 

 

Prices are at the Late-1990 offerings!
