Before I ask them to move it closer to their house what are the rules for how close a grill can be to your neighbor's house or even your own house?

Regarding the OP 's initial question, here is the official reply I got from The Villages Public Safety office:
Hi,
Thank you for your question.
The placement of open flame grills codes apply only to condos and apartments.
There is no enforceable fire code for single family dwellings; however, there may be a restriction in your HOA rules and regulations.
Manufactures recommendations and best practice is to operate open flame grills at least 10 feet from structures; however, this is not enforceable through the Florida Fire Prevention Code, Seventh Edition.
