There are smoke sucking units for under $1000. The association should buy this couple one since the smoking ban was not in effect when they bought in
That would be a good compromise.
See? How hard was that?
You know, I don't smoke...but when I had my pet chickens I was constantly concerned they'd stink and bother my neighbors. Before I knew better, I had a light on out there 24 hours a day and my hens were confused and would lay eggs in the middle of the night! Well, when hens lay, afterward they're so proud of themselves that they bock loudly for a few minutes. I would be running out there in the middle of the night shush-shushing my hens trying to get them to shut up so they wouldn't bother our neighbors! I learned that I needed to turn the light off at night...that way they'd go to sleep and not lay.
Heh!
But if someone had complained about my hens stinking, I would've just died. I didn't want to bother anyone!
We have a leash law in our town and no dog is supposed to be out without being controlled by a leash. A woman down the street just let her dog out to poop where it would (neighborly, huh?) and it dug under my fence and killed my hens. Had my dog done something like that, it would've upset me terribly...I would've been so sorry. This woman's response? She said "Well, I guess I'm gonna have to pay for them chickens."
I don't know sometimes which made me feel worse...the loss of my pets or this woman's response.
