Business ProfileforCornerstone Property Management, LLC

The way cornerstone manages Stonehenge Condominiums is completely outdated. They allow indoor and outdoor smoking, that degrades the value of our property because we all know that people avoid purchasing property/ homes that have been exposed to cigarette smoke. I have a smoker neighbor and the smell from her cigarette smoke stinks up my whole unit, it gets in our hair, clothes, furniture, etc. I reached out to property management regarding this issue and was told to sue my neighbor if I had a problem with the cigarettes smoke/smell. Secondhand smoke is not only a nuisance but a serious health hazard. It affects our quality of life and safety. Smokers are not a protected class and it is not illegal to prohibit smoking (indoor and outdoor), there are laws and bans against these practices, however, Cornerstone Management has not updated its policies and seems to prioritize smokers rights to smoke wherever they want over everyone else’s health and right to breathe clean air. This specially bothers me because I have children, one being a baby and because of these outdated policies my children are constantly exposed to second hand smoke, even when walking in and out of our building. We have been getting sick constantly and have shortness of breath due to second hand smoke exposure through the central air and heat. The fact that Innocent children and non-smoking residents are exposed to second hand smoke is wrong and is banned in most places for obvious heath concerns that Cornerstone Property Management chooses to ignore.

Stonehenge is a Condominium, governed by a Master Deed. Cornerstone is the management company, we monitor compliance of the Master Deed and work within the guidelines set forth our Management Agreement and the Budget. We do not set policy and cannot impose smoking restrictions. There are currently no laws restricting smoking in residential condominiums, and no language in the Stonehenge Master Deed that restrict smoking. We understand your concerns and will bring your issue about smoking to the Stonehenge Board of Directors. If you would like to discuss this matter further, please give my office a call.
