Can You Have a Fire Pit in Your Lubbock Backyard?

But, before you drag all the materials into your backyard and start building one, there are a couple of rules worth knowing. Yes, Lubbock allows you to have an outdoor fire pit, but where you put it matters. Lubbock codes specifically address permanent fire pits, so the lines get a little blurry. Different types of outdoor fires and fire containers can fall under totally different sections in the fire code, so it's a good idea to check with Lubbock Fire Rescue before installing something permanent or unusual. Lubbock's fire code prohibits burning when the conditions are right for a major fire event.
