As we previously advised you, the Suffolk County Legislature unanimously approved legislation prohibiting smoking in all indoor and outdoor common areas of multiple dwelling buildings (which include Co-ops and Condominiums) and within a fifty-foot radius of all entrances, exits and ventilation intakes to a building. On December 7, 2015, the Suffolk County Executive Steven Bellone gave final approval by signing the bill. The new law will become effective one hundred and twenty (120) days after it has been filed in the Office of the Secretary of State. Once the law takes effect, Boards should make sure their House Rules are conformed to be consistent with the new law.
