The purpose of today's visit is due to a complaint ( # 30914) of a shed fire and firm is grilling behind shed. Upon visit, manage was unaware of the complaint. When I asked about a fire, manager stated that they have not had a fire. I looked at the shed and did not see any charred areas and building was intact. There was no cooking equipment inside of the wooden shed. The firm has an outdoor fryer under a metal cover. The fryer is approximately 20 feet from the wooden shed and 20 feet from the brick building. Firm uses a electric smoker which sits outside of the brick building under cover that produces smoke from time to time. Unable to determine any fire took place as I do not see any damage from a fire. I asked manager if they grill any foods outside and he stated "No".There was a grill outback but it did not look as if it had been used in some time.
