Nova Place Goes Smoke-Free

Faros Properties is committed to providing a healthy, safe and clean environment for tenants, staff, and visitors. Research continues to show that the use of cigarettes, cigars, pipes, smokeless tobacco, and other tobacco products, as well as exposure to secondhand smoke, leads to disease and premature death for smokers and non-smokers alike. In addition, cigarette litter and smoke are toxic to our environment.

To this end, Faros Properties has established an updated smoke-free policy for Nova Place. The policy does not obligate anyone to give up tobacco products, but merely to refrain from smoking and using tobacco products on the Nova Place campus. It is hoped that the policy will serve as a catalyst for those who are ready to improve their health by giving up the use of tobacco.
