Amend law restricting smoking in apartment buildings and condos
Resolution Ordinance 24-11 N.S.
In Plain English
The city's current smoking restrictions in multi-unit housing need clearer language about what counts as violations and how to enforce them. The changes strengthen penalties for landlords and tenants who don't follow the rules. If approved, residents will have better tools to stop secondhand smoke problems in their buildings.
