I'm not asking whether or not you believe that the smoking ban is fair or not, since that would not be a DVC specific topic. I am asking a question that only relates to DVC, and ask that replies stay on topic so that the thread isn't closed, and I don't receive a 30 point sanction.
With the changes that will go into effect on 1 June, there is the possibility that members will be charged if it is found that they have been smoking in their rooms/balconies/resort public areas. Since smoking in the room probably won't be discovered until after checkout, and the cleaning/penalty fee may not be charged until after the vacation is over, how do you plan on dealing with renting points and having guests?
I know that I wouldn't be happy having to pay a fee for a guest who chooses not to follow the rules, and I would be even less happy if it was a renter (I know how to find my friends/family, lol). Are people changing their contracts to address this situation? Is there a (reasonable) way to even enforce such a clause in a contract? I know that the few times I've rented points, it's been to people in other states. I can't even imagine the hassle it would be to try to collect through small claims court.
