Q: What recourse do I have against a AirBB next door, smoking affecting my health, I have serious asthma problems.
The guests smoke marijuana, even though they have a no smoking rule that the owner doesn't enforce, resident/son is rarely onsite to monitor, I have high risk, serious asthma and respiratory complications. They are just ignoring the problem or saying they know nothing about and say it must be someone else, when we bring it up to their attention. We have been here for over 17 years and have never had problems of this sort. The City of Glendale has a clean air initiative where you cannot smoke in the front yard, balcony or on the street. What can be done about this?
A:
make an appt with a LOCAL lawyer for guidance. I am in Palm Springs!
if you can't afford a lawyer maybe filing in small claims for up to $10k is the answer.
i would first send a written demand letter to the owner setting forth the facts. Advised them, if this is not resolved immediately, you will pursue any and all civil and or criminal remedies at your disposal..
