MONROE - The city will consider revising its ordinance regarding safety requirements for campfires and fire pits. The revisions were broached Monday at a meeting of the Judiciary and Ordinance Review Committee, when Alderwoman Brooke Bauman said a resident had complained that a homemade fire pit was not permissible under the current code. The ordinance currently makes no distinction between the terms "campfire" and "fire pit," Bauman said, despite the fact that the terms are not interchangeable.
