Stonehenge is on a distinguished road
Not at all, Curt. And welcome to the site. Helps to give a different perspective, which might help in trying to reason out a solution to this kind of thing. And I agree about homeowners - I have a neighbor that is vigilant about taking her recyclables to the city recycling center. But aqt the same time, anything that isn't recyclable (food, toys) gets thrown into a 55-gallon drum and torched. Makes me wish I had a rocket launcher. Or could hide a stick of dynamite in the bottom of that damn barrel.

So in the interest of figuring out our current dilemma in this thread, are there designs that can be used that reduce the chance for homeowner to build the fire that can be seen from space, or prevent hot embers from flying through an open window in the house? Or anything else that might make an inspector feel better about this kind of construction being within shouting distance of the home?
