The first city in San Diego County is now banning smoking and vaping, both cannabis and nicotine products, within all multi family residential buildings, including apartments, condos, and townhomes. This California City isn’t the first to implement this no smoking mandate. At least 84 other California cities, including Beverly Hills, Culver City, Manhattan Beach, and Pasadena have also imposed restrictions on smoking within multi family residences. But under this new law, residents are not only prohibited from smoking inside their apartments and condos, but it’s also not allowed on private balconies, porches, decks, patios, and any common areas that aren’t specifically designated for smoking. While this law impacts any multifamily residential dwellings, this law does not extend to single family homes.
