Senior Apartments employee continues to smoke on premises
Homeowners send letter to HIP Housing and County
April 7, 2022
Homeowners at Edgewater Isle have sent a letter to HIP Housing, the owner of the Edgewater Isle Senior Apartments, and to the Housing Authority of San Mateo County about the HIP Housing employee who smokes on premises, in clear violation of San Mateo City Ordinance. The letter was copied to the Edgewater Isle North and Edgewater Isle Master associations, whose responsibility it should be for following up on the violation and for working with HIP Housing to resolve this problem.
This employee was photographed last summer smoking on premises. In a story posted on edgewaterisle.com last August, witnesses said that the man flicked lit cigarette butts in the area.
The City of San Mateo has a No Smoking ordinance, 7.40.050, which reads in part:
PROHIBITION OF SMOKING IN MULTI-UNIT RESIDENCES.
(a) Smoking is prohibited inside any multi-unit residence and within 40 feet of a multi-unit residence.
(b) Smoking is prohibited within any enclosed and un-enclosed multi-unit residence common area.
You can read the full ordinance on the City's website.
