Regulating public life is always a balancing act between assholes ruining the fun for everyone and the regulations ruining the fun. You can bet that if public barbecuing was allowed, assholes would dump their trash everywhere and start fires by being careless.
Well, you have to catch people dumping their trash to punish them. Most often, you’ll only see the aftermath of discarded packaging and sometimes whole grills.
Hi from Australia, where free public barbecues have been around for decades and that doesn’t happen. Maybe you just live in a country full of arseholes.

Great idea, instead of punishing the people that dump their trash everywhere, just go and outlaw some unrelated activity!

I mean, it’s likely the US so yeah no shit
In my neck of the woods (in the US) every public park has places for grilling. These places are usually kept clean. Local culture can vary a lot tho
Some other societies do a better job of policing themselves via social pressure. Unfortunately in the US it’s “fuck you, you can’t make me.”
