Propane storage and use in Rogers is regulated by the adopted Arkansas Fire Prevention Code (2021 IFC, Chapter 61) rather than a separate city ordinance. The code limits LP-gas container sizes and placement, and the city restricts where fireworks sales may sit near propane dispensers under state law.
Rogers does not appear to publish a standalone propane-storage ordinance with its own quantity limits; LP-gas storage and handling are governed by the Arkansas Fire Prevention Code the city has adopted. Per the City of Rogers Adopted Codes page, Rogers enforces the 2021 Arkansas Fire Prevention Code Volume I (Fire), which is based on the International Fire Code. The IFC (Chapter 61) sets LP-gas requirements, including container placement, separation distances, and aggregate quantity limits for cylinders stored or used at residential and commercial sites, plus rules for exchange cabinets and dispensing. For outdoor cooking, IFC Section 308 generally limits LP-gas cooking devices on or near combustible balconies of multifamily buildings to containers with a water capacity of 2.5 pounds or less (about a 1-pound cylinder), with exceptions for one- and two-family dwellings and sprinklered buildings. Separately, Arkansas fireworks law (A.C.A. 20-22-710) prohibits locating consumer fireworks retail sales within 50 feet of retail propane dispensing station dispensers. Because exact storage quantities, setbacks, and any local amendments are set by the adopted code edition, residents and businesses should confirm specific propane requirements with the Rogers Fire Department's Community Risk Reduction Division. This summary reflects the adopted code framework rather than a quoted Rogers ordinance section.
Improper LP-gas storage, exceeding code quantity limits, or unsafe placement is enforced under the adopted fire code. The Fire Department can require correction or removal of non-compliant containers; penalties follow the city's code enforcement provisions.
