TYLER — The Tyler Fire Department reminds citizens to use caution when using outdoor cooking appliances. At this time, outdoor cooking with charcoal, propane or natural gas is allowed with the following restrictions:<\/p>\n
\u00b7 Outdoor cooking operations must be done in a completely covered container. The vessel should be fully enclosed to prevent any possible ignition source from escaping.
\n\u00b7 Cooking must be done at least 10 feet from any house or structure.
\n\u00b7 Cooking must be constantly monitored by an adult.<\/p>\n
The Tyler Fire Department also recommends that a water source be constantly within reach and reminds citizens that any resulting damage or injuries will be the financial responsibility of the person cooking. Additionally, grills located in City parks should not be used unless they meet the above criteria. Citizens may bring personal grills to City parks, provided they comply with the above mentioned requirements. <\/p>\n
Citizens are encouraged to remain alert and practice fire safety precautions during these unusually dry conditions. Contact the Tyler Fire Marshal\u2019s Office at (903) 535-0005 for more information regarding fire safety and prevention. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
