I am an absolute fanatic against cigarette smoke but I see danger in this bill. I deeply respect the parties involved but it seems to put even more control in the hands of the tenants. How would we stop a tenant from breaking their lease just on the premise of "I smelled cigarette smoke"? How do we prove what the truth is? How would the landlord "correct the issue"? Would the liability for any health issues then become the landlords responsibility? How much of a lawsuit would that cost the landlord? My experience over the last 40 years as a landlord is that tenants have all the rights and landlords have none. To increase tenants rights even more is, as I say, a danger. Be careful Evan, Joe, Camille, David and Pat. This law could come back to bite us all. I hope I am wrong.
Happy Spring everyone.
