Welcome to the

The Registry is being developed
in response to the many requests we have received from the public
for information about rental units which are free of drifting
tobacco smoke.
The Smokefree Apartment House Registry is a project of Smokefree
Air For Everyone (S.A.F.E.)
and Community Partners, Los Angeles.
For many years, hotels and motels have offered smokefree accommodations.
The demand for "non-smoking rooms" is so great, in
fact, that few hotels will guarantee a smokefree room,
even when it is urgently requested.
Preliminary surveys in Los Angeles and Ventura Counties indicate
there is also a strong demand for smokefree accommodations in
apartments and condominiums. It is unfortunate that in some buildings,
tobacco smoke can drift from one unit into another, or can enter
an apartment or condo from halls, stairs, balconies, and patios.
Most Californians are aware of the health hazards of secondhand
smoke and wish to be protected from it. However, many apartment
owners are not aware that they have the choice to designate all
or part of an apartment building or complex as smokefree. Smokefree
apartments are less costly to maintain and may be cheaper to
insure.
We offer a free listing on our web site: <smokefreeapartments.org>
to apartment owners who have chosen to establish a total or partial
smokefree policy in their buildings. (We request that at least
one third of contiguous units be designated as smokefree to be
included in the Registry.) Our web site will also be free to
prospective tenants.
Eighty-two percent of California adults do not smoke. Smokefree
multi-unit housing will benefit both owners and tenants.
Please let us hear from you. |
