Live Christmas Tree Policy

[Melissa Gittens]

Hi Everyone, 

Happy Holidays! Its been a while since I posted and now that we are all in the holiday spirit/season, I figured now would be the appropriate time to ask this question!

I was wondering what is your policy on tenants to having a live Christmas tree in their apartments? I do not currently have this in my lease but I wanted to start implementing a "no live Christmas tree policy" in my lease as it is a fire hazard. 

What are your thoughts on this? If you currently have this policy in your lease, what has been your experience  with tenants in this? Also am I legally allowed to have this in my lease?

Thanks, 

Melissa
