Kendall Weekly Times 9he Joliet FireDepartment wouldlike to remindresidents of thecriteria for using acommercial ire pitwithin the citylimits. • Commercially sold steel outdoor ire pits that are on legs attached to a steel bottom, wire mesh sides and a top are approved. A ire extinguisher or garden hose must be available to extinguish the ire, if necessary. Approved outdoor pits shall be at least 15 feet away from any struc‐ ture or fence. Fuel (wooden logs, or artiicial logs) shall it inside the conines of the wire mesh, and the top shall be in place to be legal. Wooden pallets, treated deck wood, leaves, dimen‐ sional lumber, or garbage, shall not be used as fuel in an outdoor ire pit. Be aware that although it is legal to burn in an approved outdoor ire pit, if it is believed to be offensive or objectionable by the com‐ plainant due to smoke, lames, sparks, or odor omissions, then the homeowner shall extinguish the ire immediately. In addition, a police officer on the scene may is‐ sue a compliance ticket to the homeowner for creating a public nuisance or being in violation of the International Fire Code 2003 Section 307.2.2 \"Prohibited Open Burning\" which states: \"Open burning that will be offensive or objectionable because of smoke or odor emissions when atmospheric conditions or local circumstances make such ires hazardous shall be prohibited. he ire code official is authorized to order the extin‐ guishment by the homeowner or the Fire Department of open burning which creates or adds to a hazardous or objectionable situa‐ tion.\" Residents are also reminded to verify any restrictions or guidelines with their Home Owners Association, if applicable, because the use of ire pits may be forbidden.

Kendall Weekly Times 23Weekend Sports Wrap with Ken MusichWith summer here there is summerbaseball and summer sotball we will becovering this summer for you. Howeverthis week's focus is on the controversyabout Pete Rose the all-time hit leaderfor MLB. He will be once again able toattend the All Star game and the festivi‐ties he has once again applied for full re‐instatement to the commissioner's officeand was denied. Since 1989 he has beenbanned from the game because he bet onbaseball and worse he put against hisown team at the time of which he was amanager of the Reds.For years he denied betting against hisown team but in recent years has admit‐ted to his guilt. With over 4100 hits anda lifetime batting average of 300 Rose isone of the greats of America's pastime.His character however does not relectthe morals and the history that Baseballstrives to provide for so many across thenation. He has not done charity work, hehas not helped the community, and in‐stead Rose has made a living off beingPete Rose. here is no doubt he was greaton the ield but off he was a disaster. Soas we head into the All- Star Break let'sremember some of the greats that havepassed and Tony Gwynn stands out inmy mind. A man who let us too soonand someone who gave back; So Mr.Rose 2017 is around the corner and iswhen you are eligible to reapply so weinvite you to do so but do not be sur‐prised he if once again you are denied.
