Quarters at Cambridge to Become First Smoke-Free Luxury Apartment Complex in Wichita

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) May 12, 2008 -- Wichita, KS – May 12, 2008 – Quarters at Cambridge, a luxury apartment community in northeast Wichita, has recently announced plans to make all buildings and common areas on the property smoke-free. 


Residents were surveyed, and a considerable majority stated they would prefer to live in a partially or totally smoke-free community. There is a growing national trend for smoke-free apartment complexes, and Quarters at Cambridge is on the forefront of this trend in Wichita.

The new policy is expected to satisfy residents’ wishes for smoke-free apartment living, as well as reduce maintenance expenses associated with secondhand smoke and reduce the risk of fires. Residents will still be permitted to smoke on personal patios, entryways, and in their garages.
“We’re thrilled to be able to meet our tenants’ desires by providing a smoke-free living environment,” said Fred Hanley, owner of Quarters at Cambridge. “There is a real need for this amenity in Wichita, and we are proud to be the first luxury apartment community to offer it.”

The ban will go into effect on July 1st, 2008. Many residents have already signed a voluntary addendum to their lease to limit smoking. A few residents with longer-term leases will be permitted to smoke until the end of their lease. The complex expects to be totally smoke-free by June 30th, 2009. 




Quarters at Cambridge is an award-winning luxury living community with 194 apartments, town homes, and garden homes. The property is located at 9911 East 21st Street North in Wichita, KS.
