Smell and smoke from cigarette and marijuana emanated from drain openings and plug outlet in neighbour’s unit, tribunal told

SURREY — A Surrey condo owner who fought against $800 in fines for smoking cigarettes and marijuana in his unit has to pay more than $13,000 to cover the strata’s legal fees.

Her complaints said “there were days the smell was so bad that she could not work from her home office, take baths in the upstairs bathroom, or make breakfast in the kitchen.” It was established as more strata corporations in B.C. have been implementing non-smoking bylaws, but also struggling to juggle the concerns of non-­smokers versus the personal freedoms of other residents.
