In my former community, we had interest during construction from a woman with extreme environmental sensitivities. As head of outreach, I was torn between being welcoming and being honest about how far the community would go to accommodate her condition. Since it was a multi-family building, it would have meant nobody using anything scented anywhere, no BBQ in the courtyard, etc. I was relieved when she declined. If she had joined early and gotten involved, I think the community probably would have tried to work with her, but it would have been tough. I had visions of an visitor walking by her door wearing perfume and sending her to the hospital. It was too much to ask.
