Camp fires anytime of the day are legal in Nassau County !

[Pangaroo]

I'm not a crab who calls the Police all the time, but 3 weeks ago I was in bed around midnight. It was warm and humid and no doubt every neighbor had their AC's on. Around midnight I started smelling smoke in my room and thought a house was on fire nearby. For 15 minutes I put up with the Smoke, the AC was sucking it in , I went outside and the whole neighborhood smelled of smoke like there was a house fire. I looked out my window after seeing a shine in the window and my neighbor in the back had a Camp fire roaring about 12:30 in the morning . A bunch of 20 year olds were having fun and homes were getting stunk out with smoke. My elderly mother is 87 and she had to breath that smoke. I called 911 and the Police came to investigate. They called the 911 operator and said it was a Camp Fire and they couldn't do anything. Half Hour later after realizing nothing was done about it, I called 911 again and had a heated argument with the operator and told her it was legal to have a campfire but it wasn't legal to create a health hazard. Looked like they put out the fire after 1AM .Amazing people would start a campfire in the middle of suburbia - homes on 60x 100 lots after Midnight.
