Many homeowner's associations are evaluating their policies about secondhand smoke. The easiest policy changes to make are new rules banning smoking in indoor and outdoor common areas. More difficult changes involve banning smoking in individual units and on balconies and patios. These kinds of changes are often needed because tobacco smoke will drift from unit to unit and into units of non-tobacco users from nearby patios and balconies.
Some homeowner's associations are asking their members to vote on these issues so that CC & R's (Conditions, Covenants and Restrictions) can be changed legally. Here is an excellent letter from a homeowner's association in California explaining the issue and urging its members to vote on new policies for smoking.
