Outdoor smoking ban coming to Suffolk County


Smoking will be banned later this year at parks and beaches in Suffolk County. But a bill passed this week by the county legislature exempts parking lots, campgrounds and golf courses. Newsday (http://bit.ly/KmRfph ) says there also will be no finds for violators. The resolution was crafted by Legislator William Spencer.

The Centerport Democrat is also a doctor. Spencer — faced with making compromises in his legislation — decided on parks and beaches because a lot of children go there. The ban takes effect 90 days after the bill is signed by County Executive Steve Bellone and filed with the state.
