Author: SOURCE The Met Smoke-Free Campaign
Intro: Homeowners at The Met,
a popular condominium located at the Warner Center in Woodland Hills have
begun a process of petitioning to restrict smoking in both private and
common areas at the complex. The campaign to make The Met smoke-free began
after multiple claims of unwanted secondhand smoke coming into units went
unresolved by the HOA.
Brian Meert, a homeowner at The Met stated, "The homeowner below me had
a medical marijuana license and when he smoked, the unwanted secondhand
smoke would rise into my condo. I tried working with the HOA multiple times
to find a solution, but their response was that it is just the way the
building was designed."
"The issue of smoke traveling to other units has been one of the major
concerns at The Met," states Meert. "If the buildings are unable to
restrict smoke from traveling between units, I believe the smoking policy
should be a decision that the homeowners make as it directly affects their
health and potential property value."
An official website for The Met Smoke-Free campaign has been posted
online at http://www.TheMetSmokeFree.com.
