Panel bans smoking at beaches, parks and piers
The Port Commission has joined a growing list of agencies in California that ban smoking at parks and beaches.
No-smoking signs will soon be posted at beaches, 17 parks and fishing piers along San Diego Bay. All five cities represented by the Port District have approved smoking bans at parks or beaches, as have other cities in the county. The city of San Diego banned smoking at its beaches and parks earlier this year, joining about 2,300 other municipalities across the nation that have barred smoking in a number of public places.
