Butts not appreciated
Some time last year Wellspan annouced that there would be no smoking at all their facilities. Now in order for York Hospital employees to smoke all they have to do is step off the sidewalk or walk accross the street and stand on the corner.
Unfortunately many of these smokers choose not to dispose of their butts in a proper manner. Irving Road, the street that borders the back of the hospital, is littered with an unbelievable amount of butts.
I would hope that both the smokers and the hospital take responsibitiy for this problem and develop a plan to rid our neighborhood of the smokers as well as their butts.

Maybe Hospital management could forbid employee smokers from stepping off the property, and let them smoke only in carefully exhausted booths in the morgue. Any health care worker who smokes these days is either too dumb or lazy to quit. Make 'em think.
