(Washington Business Journal) — Building owners and property managers in D.C. as of Tuesday will be allowed to post signs barring smoking within 25 feet of their outer walls, but many may choose not to participate as the new statute is unenforceable and may spark confrontation with stubborn smokers.
Language adopted by the D.C. Council authorizes property owners — commercial or residential — or ground-floor commercial tenants to post signs on their properties stating that smoking is not permitted on public space within 25 feet from the building wall or the distance to the far side of the adjacent public sidewalk, whichever is less.
