Property ManagementCompliance Management4HighOwner$ implied

A landlord cannot prove which tenant is smoking marijuana in a no-smoking building, due to distance and lack of evidence on demand.

Existing smoke alarms detect fire smoke but cannot specifically identify marijuana smoke, and they cannot provide timestamped evidence linked to a specific unit for remote enforcement.
