Beach-Smoking Ban Discussed in Trenton

 

By Herald Staff

TRENTON — The state Senate’s Health, Human Services and Senior Citizens committee met on Feb. 18 to consider prohibiting smoking on all public beaches in New Jersey.
The report said the panel will consider three legislative proposals and is expected to combine them into one bill. Smoking is already outlawed on a number of state beaches based on town ordinances.
There was discussion whether or not the ban would include other public places, such as racetracks and amusement parks.
If the committee approves the combined bill, the full Senate could vote on the measure as early as Monday.
