City officials consider smoking ban

How would you like your favorite park to be smoke-free? City officials want to make that happen.
News10NBC has learned about a proposal to ban smoking in all city parks and outdoor recreation areas. The goal is to keep secondhand smoke and litter out of parks and away from children. Officials hope it will also encourage smokers to quit.
In July, a statewide ban on smoking at playgrounds was passed by state lawmakers. Officials hope to bring this proposal to city council by November.
