I'd guess that most back yard fires are not planned, But more spure of the moment occurances. The permit idea would likely cause people to simply give up and get rid of their fire pits.

A permit might educate people on the do's and don't's and what the bylaws are for these fire pits. It might also reduce the number of complaints the city would have to deal with.
I doubt that it would cause people to give up. If you're not breaking any rules then what's the worry? A few of my neighbours built some nice fire pits and am sure they wouldn't be offeneded by a one time permit.
