I would hope that these facilities need to be barrier free since some of those customers packing their hookahs may be in wheel chairs. It’s coming to Michigan soon and I’m sure the same delays will be seen there too. The fire officials should also be included in the caveat of interested agencies since the potentials for fire are certain to increase in these assembly occupancies with the diminished/altered capacities of the occupants and the inevitable open flames, popping seeds (I’ve been told), floor covering ratings and smoking devices being used regardless of regulated sprinkler requirements. The health department concerns may be increased also by the potentials for food service (munchies) or mold development when the Bong water gets spilled from the customers too.
