Going smoke-free brings benefits to both developers and residents.
Establishing a smoke-free policy for new condominiums creates a healthy environment for residents, a safer building and adds value to the property. Although it is possible for a building to adopt a smoke-free policy later on, it is easier and better to do it from the
beginning of occupancy.
A smoke-free building means that, at a minimum, smoking is not allowed within any part of the building, including the units and balconies. This is a policy that goes above and beyond what is required by Smoke-free Ontario Act’s rules.
