I'm wondering...do Smokers have any Constutional Rights? I've smoked in my apt. for 15 yrs, and because new Owners bought our (Senior Independent) building, we have been told we are not permitted to smoke in our apt. and must smoke outside!! The heat outside makes me ill, literally. We have no outside shelter. So I must smoke in my apt.
No, you do not have any ‘rights’ as a smoker; nor do you HAVE to smoke in your unit. Follow the rules or be prepared for an eviction.
You have even less rights to smoke in your apartment since the ducts may be shared between units and your air quality effects your neighbors air quality even more.
hi first let me tell you my story .I have been taking care of a gentelmen of 71 yrs old and is a smoker.He has lived in this app.complex for 12 .12 years ago it was ok to smoke in your app in this app.he has always paid rent on time never any complaints .He was evited about 2 months ago for smoking brcause of the new laws.and now lives with me haha what im asking is is there a clause saying that any resident that has neen there for that many years required to stop smoking also.
There is no such thing. Smoking isn’t a protected class. All they had to do is send a letter saying no smoking in the units, as of x date.

Looks like we all missed the irony of the 3rd sentence.
OP: does your lease say you can smoke in your unit?
It wouldn't be called a "new" rule if it wasn't contradicting the lease.
