Richard White: What is the procedure to appeal a fire marshal's decision?	5/19/2013 2:00 AM

Every unit in our condominium has similar stoves with no venting. My review of Florida’s fire code says that community rooms with less than a 50-person occupancy can be exempt. I am reluctant to approach the fire marshal’s office for fear of undesirable consequences. Is there an appeal procedure specific in the code? What has been your experience in regards to this problem?
