What to do if your neighbor is causing a nuisance with weed?

Questioner

I've had a new neighbor since the end of last year. He smokes weed all day, and it's making me really sick. It gives me a headache and makes me angry. The smell is so incredibly bad! I've now had discussions with the housing association. They've discussed it with the neighbor, but he knows his rights. He's allowed to smoke weed on his own property. Don't I have a leg to stand on now? Because he won't adapt.

Some nuisance must, in principle, be tolerated. Only if there is a serious nuisance or odor nuisance should the housing association take action against the perpetrator. This must be substantiated. Smoking marijuana in your own garden is not prohibited, but if it causes a serious odor nuisance, you can inform your neighbor (or have them informed), for example, through neighborhood mediation or enforcement by the municipality.
