Non-Smoking Property

In order to improve everyone’s health, The Marion L Phillips Apartments is a completely non-smoking property. All new tenants are required to sign a lease for a non-smoking apartment; in addition, neither they nor their family, friends and guests may smoke on the property, either inside or outside the building. The Claremont Housing Authority strictly enforces this.  Management can link tenants to smoking-cessation programs and to some extent help pay for programs and stop-smoking medications.
