“We have received around 50 different inquiries on this matter. Managing Director Povilas Poderskis has already made the decision to ban smoking in 270 apartment buildings. Decisions are not made at the same time and will take effect at different times in different apartment buildings. The first such order for 28 apartment buildings will come into effect on February 5. Subsequent bans on other apartment buildings will come into effect later, ”A. Bužinskas told Eltai.
According to him, the first complaints will be available precisely after February 5, when the bans on approved apartment buildings will go into effect.
“Until the ban takes effect, people can’t complain to people, neighbors for violating the ban, and smokers can’t be punished.
It is important that complaints can only be filed by people who have declared their place of residence in that apartment building, “said a representative of the municipality.
A. Bužinskas emphasized that home managers should inform residents about the fact that smoking is prohibited in their home by posting information on billboards and devices, if managers have them and people use them.
It is also important to emphasize that the day the ban goes into effect, the administrator will still have to install and smoke bans in a particular apartment building, but in any case the order of the administrative director is a normative legal act that is published in the Registry of Legal Acts disseminated information, installed prohibition posters or not ”, he added.
