Sitting,
Similar problem while being stationed in Japan and living out in town. Wood was not allowed due to fire hazards (plus hard to obtain).
My solution was a three burner gas grill with both regular gas burners and IR burners. Add wood smoker boxes with wood chips of choice. Mostly steak, beer butt chicken, and pork ribs.
Set up one side with gas burner and smoker boxes. Put meat on far side over IR burner.
Use only the gas burner underneath the smoker boxes for majority of cooking.
Beer butt chicken and rice I take out burner underneath the chicken and collect the drippings in a pan to reduce and add to the rice. When the chicken is done take it off to let rest. Re-install IR burner and heat up drippings for sauce of choice, let’s you burn excess off the grate, reduce/finish the drippings, and rest the meat.
Steak and ribs similar. Just use the IR grill for final sear.
Enjoy the experimentation.
