Medical Marijuana, Ohio
Hey BP community! I recently discovered a tenant of mine has their medical card and has been smoking in one of my units. I use the lease supplied with The Book on Managing Rental Properties By Brandon Turner. Here is what the lease says:
Tenant shall not be permitted to, and shall not permit any family, visiting friends, dependents, guests, licensees or invitees of Tenant to grow, produce, possess, consume, use, smoke, or ingest any marijuana, cannibas or any products or ingestibles containing marijuana or cannibas in any location in, on or about the Premises; the foregoing prohibition to be absolute and without exception and shall include any growing, production, possession, use or consumption pursuant to any medical use or medical prescription, or any medical, retail or recreational marijuana activities that may otherwise be permitted under any local, state or federal laws, rules or regulations now or hereafter in effect. Tenant’s violation of this rule shall be an immediate and incurable default of this Lease and shall be cause for eviction.
Is this valid in Ohio? Can I tell my tenant she can't smoke but can use some sort of edible instead?
Thank you for your help!
