Good thought, Lorie, but the concern I'd have is that wind is unpredictable.
Even before we went Smoke-Free, we had a policy of no smoking in the common areas or within 25 feet of any entry to the building. While we don't have a pool, this would apply to that area if we did. This was based off of the state law, so check yours and see what it says.
If a resident or guest wants to smoke, they should leave the common area and return when they are done. It's the courteous (and possibly legal) thing to do.
