Just a matter of time lads and lasses...
Yup. Just a matter of time. Since nobody speaks up to defend smokers, there's no opposition to such laws.

Yup... Smokers are not a protected class.

How is that legal? The tenant's signed a lease with a certain rule set. Changing the rules is breaking the Landlord's end of the lease. I would not pay the penalty and would refer to the signed lease as towards what is allowed and not. There could be language that allow on the fly rule changes by landlord, but I would not sign such a lease...
