In response to those who have reported difficulties caused by being routed through the Designated Smoking Area in front of The Hyatt, Anime Central will be attempting to provide a smoke-free bypass around this space. To do this, the Ballroom Entrance located partway up the driveway will be freed up to accommodate increased traffic flow, the law prohibiting smoking within 15 feet of this doorway will be observed and we're asking all attendees to please refrain from smoking anywhere along the length of sidewalk connecting that entrance to the street. We hope we can count on everyone's cooperation in making this work. Questions can be directed to adacompliance-dh@ACen.org.

The same designated smoking area remains where it has always been, right outside the main entrance to the Hyatt. This is just an alternate doorway closer to the street which will allow those with allergies and respiratory difficulties to enter and leave without being forced to go through the smoke.
