DISCUSSION Background In 1985, the City of San Luis Obispo was the first City in the world to ban smoking from indoor areas, restaurants, and bars. Since that time, State law has"caught up" and Chapter 8.16 of the City's Municipal Code which currently regulates smoking in the City of San Luis Obispo finds itself on par with State law and regulations. Both now regulate workplaces, health care facilities, government buildings, entertainment places, and food related indoor spaces. However, neither State nor City code currently regulate outdoor recreational areas, sport facilities, or Open Space. Current State law only prohibits public school students from smoking or using tobacco products while on campus or while attending school-sponsored activities. Statewide, many jurisdictions have expanded their smoking ordinances to go above and beyond current State law reacting to new information about secondhand smoke and its impact on people's health. In California, over 100 cities have adopted more stringent ordinances prohibiting smoking from outdoor recreation areas. 24 communities have banned smoking from all areas frequented by the public including multi-unit residences. In San Luis Obispo County, Morro Bay, Pismo Beach, Atascadero and Arroyo Grande have banned smoking from their public parks, beaches, open space, sports facilities, skate parks, biking trails, and dog parks. During the communication portion of the agenda on the December 15, 2008 Council meeting, Council directed staff to return with recommendations for possible amendment of Chapter 8.16 of the Municipal Code in Fall 2009. Chapter 8.16 of the City's Municipal Code entitled "Smoking prohibited in certain areas" sets forth the City's current smoking regulations. Council direction was based on numerous complaints received pertaining to smoking and secondhand smoke exposure mainly in Downtown San Luis Obispo and the City's outdoor recreation areas. Staff started its review concentrating on four main areas namely the danger of secondhand smoke, littering as it pertains to smoking, fire danger,,and citizen complaints. B & Amendment to Municipal Code Chapter 8.16—Non-smoking law Page 2 Areas of concentrated staff review Dangers of Second Hand Smoke - The 2006 U.S. Surgeon General's Report concludes there is scientific evidence showing that there is no "safe" level of exposure to secondhand smoke. Secondhand smoke causes premature death and disease in children and adults who do not smoke. In the United States alone, secondhand smoke is responsible for an estimated 46,000 deaths from heart disease in non-smoking adults, and up to 300,000 lung infections in children annually. The California Air Resources Board declared secondhand smoke a toxic air contaminant in January 2006. Researchers with Stanford University found that levels of exposure to secondhand smoke outdoors can be comparable to secondhand smoke exposure indoors. In addition, when individuals are near a smoker outdoors, they are exposed to air pollution levels significantly higher than normal background air pollution levels. Several studies from Tobacco Control indicate that San Luis Obispo County residents are supportive of more stringent smoking laws: 87%of San Luis Obispo County residents do not smoke. 60%of San Luis Obispo County residents support smoke-free outdoor areas such as parks,beaches, golf courses, zoos, and sports fields. (California Department of Health Services:Tobacco Control Section 2007 C-Stats website"County snapshot—Sa Luis Obispo"and 2004'The Survey of California Adults on Secondhand Smoke.") Furthermore, smoking in picnic areas where people are eating, near the playgrounds where children are playing, chewing of tobacco products at baseball games by those who mentor the City's youth, and smoking in general in any part of the City's outdoor recreation areas seems philosophically incongruent with the core mission of the City's Parks and Recreation program and activities. In its mission statement, the Parks and Recreation department commits to providing quality parks, open space, recreation, cultural and educational services essential to the enhancement and promotion of personal well being, safety, and a sense of community. Smoking Related Litter-The disposal of cigarette butts and other materials associated with smoking and tobacco products in public areas throughout the City creates unsightly conditions and poses possible hazards to children, animals, and the riparian corridor with its aquatic wildlife. Cigarette filters and plastic wrappers from cigarette packages are not biodegradable and cigarette related waste discarded in parks, along sidewalks, and in street gutters make their way through storm drains into creeks and rivers leaking dangerous chemicals into the City's watershed. The City of San Luis Obispo is subject to regulations issued by the Stormwater Management Program and is mandated by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board to reduce the environmental impact from stormwater run-off and human activities in the local creek systems. The City is also subject to regulation under the California Endangered Species Act and the Federal Endangered Species Act of 1973, as two federally protected species under the Federal Act, Steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) and California Red-legged frogs (Rana aurora), have both been found within San Luis Obispo city limits. Cigarette filters have been found in the -9 L, � J Amendment to Municipal Code Chapter 8.16—Non-smoking law Page 3 stomachs of fish, birds, and other animals that mistake them for food, thus swallowing harmful plastic and toxic chemicals. The cleaning of tobacco related debris in parks, open space, and the City's storm water system amounts to substantial cost to taxpayers. Fire Danger- Cigarettes, cigars, and other forms of burning tobacco present a fire danger when discarded in the City's Open Spaces. Especially during drought years, it is a concern shared by citizens and the City's Fire Department alike. The California Fire Code, which was adopted by Council, already deals with prohibitions on smoking. Under Section 310.8, the fire code official (the City's Fire Chief)is authorized to determine an area as sufficiently hazardous that smoking needs to be prohibited. Citizen Complaints -The review of the City's current ordinance was largely based on complaints received by citizens. Local tobacco control program officials verified that the same complaints are received at their offices. Most of the complaints come from the City's Downtown where people smoke on benches, next to business and restaurant entrances, and business alcoves where smoke drifts into adjacent businesses, offices, and dining areas. Staff frequently receives phone calls inquiring about the State law prohibiting smoking within 20 feet of a main exit, entrance, or operable window of a public building. However, "public building" in the California Government Code, Sections 7596—7598 is defined as owned and occupied or leased and occupied by the state, a county, a city, or a California Community College district. It does not pertain to private business entrances frequented by the public. Parks& Recreation Commission Based on the mentioned findings, staff took a recommendation to the Parks and Recreation Commission on November 4, 2009 to consider the ban of smoking in city-owned outdoor recreation areas including Mission Plaza and its adjacent creek walk. Five members of the public commented on the considered action and spoke in favour of it. After deliberation, the commission moved to support the recommended action. However, the commission also discussed tobacco products in general and how they pertain to Parks and Recreation programs and activities. It therefore voted to change the recommendation to include not only smoking,but all tobacco products. The commission furthermore discussed the downtown area as most complaints come from business owners and downtown patrons that are exposed to secondhand smoke drifting into the business and office spaces. The commission felt that, in addition to the recommendation in the outdoor recreation areas, the Council strongly consider expanding the ban to include the entire downtown core(Attachment 2—Draft Minutes). Outreach to Business Community Given the large number of complaints originating in the Downtown area, staff reached out to the Downtown Association and the Chamber of Commerce to gauge current perception and possible readiness for an expansion of a smoking ban in all public areas downtown as recommended by the Parks and Recreation Commission. This ban would include sidewalks, parking areas, and passage ways. The Downtown Association presented the issue to its Executive Committee and to its board on November 3'd and l0a' respectively. During the board meeting, the officers voted to support the B' . 2 i Amendment to Municipal Code Chapter 8.16—Non-smoking law Page 4 ban in city-owned outdoor recreation areas including Mission Plaza and its adjacent creek walk. However, the board believed that a smoking ban in any other area in the Downtown corridor should be dealt with at a later date. (Attachment 3 —Correspondence from Deborah Cash).. The Chamber of Commerce brought the issue to its Issues Committee, Sustainability and Resources Committee, and its board. It also sent a survey to all its members and received over 500 responses with a majority of votes supporting the ban from outdoor recreation areas. The board voted to support the ban of smoking and tobacco products in city-owned outdoor recreation areas including Mission Plaza and its adjacent creek walk. They felt that a more encompassing ban spanning the entire Downtown area would not be appropriate at this time. Public Education and Enforcement Given the experience in other jurisdictions, compliance with a new smoking ban will best be achieved through strong signage referencing the governing law with the intent to encourage self- regulation in the area. Public outreach and information will further encourage acceptance and nurture compliance with anew non-smoking law. Police will not actively patrol areas for smoking related offenses, but enforce when encountered or called upon. In Mission Plaza, outreach, education, and enforcement are facilitated by the presence of the Downtown officers and the Downtown's security service. In the City's outdoor recreational areas, the Rangers will assist in outreach and education to further ensure compliance with the ordinance. Violations of non-smoking areas would be considered either infractions or misdemeanors. However, staff recommends that violations of this proposed ordinance be handled through the City's administrative code enforcement procedures as the criminal justice system and the courts are not involved. Since the introduction of Chapter 1.12—General Penalty, the City has added the administrative citation process to deal with minor infractions such as smoking violations (Chapter 1.24 of the Municipal Code). Currently noise violations, urinating in public, and open containers are regulated through this process. It should be noted that the City has and continues to employ the philosophy of voluntary compliance with the administrative citation code. Prior to the implementation of penalties, voluntary compliance approaches will be used (when practical) in order to educate the public concerning the requirements of the code and compliance with its requirements. Summary Given complaints, community readiness, and the City's mission for its parks and recreational areas, staff recommends prohibiting smoking in all City outdoor recreation areas. This would include City parks, dedicated Open Space, sport facilities, trails, and skate and dog parks. Staff also recommends including Mission Plaza in this definition, since it is the most frequented City outdoor area with a multitude of events and gatherings happening year round. Bb 4 1 Amendment to Municipal Code Chapter 8.16—Non-smoking law Page 5 CONCURRENCES The Downtown Association and the Chamber of Commerce support the recommended amendments for a ban of smoking and all tobacco products in city-owned outdoor recreation areas including Mission Plaza and its adjacent creek walk. FISCAL IMPACT There will be initial cost for signage, outreach, and education. Staff estimates a cost of$10,000 to equip all necessary spaces with signage and to produce the educational material. The local Tobacco Control office will assist this effort with a 25% ($2,500) contribution in addition to assistance with outreach and education in form of"Thank-you" ads, brochures and leaflets. The remaining $7,500 estimated, would have to be appropriated from the General Fund unreserved fund balance. ALTERNATIVES 1. Council could consider the Parks and Recreation Commission's suggestion to broaden the ban to all public areas in the Downtown in addition to the outdoor recreation areas including Mission plaza and the creek walk. The Downtown Association, as well as the Chamber of Commerce felt that such a step was not yet warranted. 2. Council could consider leaving the City's current smoking prohibition as is. This is not recommended given the health and litter implications and the Parks and Recreation Commission, the Chamber of Commerce, and the Downtown Association endorsement of the recommended action.

Amendment to Municipal Code Chapter 8.16 — Smoking Prohibited in Certain Areas — Elke Principal Administrative Analyst Brigitte Elke gave a PowerPoint presentation to Commissioners outlining the background of the smoking prohibition request and the dangers of secondhand smoke. Staff and Council members recently received numerous complaints regarding smoking or secondhand smoke mainly in outside areas downtown. Council directed staff to review the current city ordinance on smoking and return with recommendation for possible amendments. Chapter 8.16 of the City's Municipal Code currently regulates smoking in the City of San Luis Obispo. The regulation is based on current state law and prohibits smoking in certain public places. It regulates workplaces,health care facilities, government buildings, entertainment places, and food- related indoor spaces. However, it does not regulate the City's outdoor recreational areas, sport facilities or Open Space. Allowing smoking in outdoor areas does not correlate with the mission of Parks and Recreation. Disposal of cigarette butts and other materials associated with smoking and tobacco products creates unsightly conditions and possible hazards to children, animals and the riparian corridor and its creek aquatic life. Significant time is spent cleaning smoking and tobacco related waste. Aside from second-hand smoke and waste related issues, there is also the concern for possible fire in the City's Open Space areas. Given complaints, community readiness, and the City's mission for its parks and recreational areas, staff recommends prohibiting smoking in all City outdoor recreation areas. This would include City parks, dedicated Open Space; sport facilities,hiking and biking trails, the City's golf course,aquatic facilities, and skate and dog parks. Staff also recommends including Mission Plaza and the creek walkway in this definition since it is the most frequented City outdoor area with a multitude of events and gatherings happening all year round. Pismo Beach,Arroyo Grande and Atascadero have already passed similar ordinances. (A letter from the Director of the City of Arroyo Grande was distributed to Commissioners as well as two other letters of comment from the public). Principal Administrative Analyst Elke informed Commissioners that if the motion is passed,the next step will be community outreach and education,new strongly-worded signage and enforcement. Chair Lemieux opened the floor to Public Comment. Dr. Steve Hansen, Tobacco Control Program, County of San Luis Obispo. Supports smoking ban. Stated the Surgeon General indicates there is no safe level of drifting tobacco smoke. Explained physical effects of nitrous oxide in smoke,particularly in those with heart conditions. Informed that smokers are not considered a special class by the court systems, discussed taxes (Prop 99), and pointed out much of the tobacco product (such as the filter) does not degrade for decades. Stated California has already banned smoking in bars (1998), prisons and mental health facilities (2005) without large public complaint and that, in that time, two new drugs have been developed to help smokers to quit. Believes passing this measure would help to prevent loitering downtown, and that helping smokers to quit would lower disability payments and decrease emphysema. 1-4 �� "/v ATTACHMEW2 Parks and Recreation Commission Draft Minutes November 4,2009 Page 5 of 8 Christina Lefevre, Tobacco Control Program, County of San Luis Obispo.

Wayne Hansen,Atascadero resident and employed in San Luis Obispo. Chair of County's Tobacco Control Program/Coalition. Supports smoking ban. Suggested work with Tobacco Control to develop plan and that resources are available to address needs and potential problems. Feels the ban would send a message that the City cares about the health of its community. Pointed out Atascadero and Bakersfield have already passed similar bans. Laura Slaughtee, San Luis Obispo resident, new mother and emergency room nurse, volunteer member of Tobacco Control Program/Coalition. Supports smoking ban. Informed asbestos and car exhaust in same category as second-hand smoke, that children are more susceptible to the effects of second-hand smoke,particularly the physical affects to fetuses.Feels it is a social norm for teens that should be removed and that this habit should not come before citizens' health. Encouraged protection of parks, the plaza, creek walkway, businesses, sidewalks and dining areas. Feels San Luis Obispo has a legacy of leadership and hopes the City demonstrates its commitment to protect its citizens. Commissioner Kincaid inquired about budgeting and any revenue loss from sales tax; which was answered by Elke and members of the County's Tobacco Control.Program Coalition. Commissioner Regier inquired as to new signage with stronger language prohibiting use, transit areas bans and current position on smokeless tobacco. Elke estimated approximately $l Ok in funding would be needed for signage but that budget assistance could be provided by the Tobacco Coalition. Elke indicated smokeless forms of tobacco were not included at this time but could be at the option of the Commissioners. Commissioners also discussed Rangers role in education more than enforcement. MOTION: (Regier/Kincaid) Recommend Council amend Chapter 8.16 of the City's Municipal Code to ban smoking and all forms of tobacco products from outdoor recreation areas in the City of San Luis Obispo.

Tobacco-use outdoors in places such as recreational areas, Mission Plaza, the creek walkway, outdoor dining, bus stops, service areas, sidewalks, worksites and public events, like Farmer's Market, is a major public health problem. Like many other people in San Luis Obispo County, I am allergic to tobacco smoke. In addition, I am an asthmatic. When I am exposed to tobacco smoke, even in small amounts, my allergies flare up and trigger my asthma. This allergic reaction isnot just at the time of the exposure but lasts for days or even weeks to come. These allergic reactions require I decrease my level of physical activity, increase my asthma medication and at times, I have to start a medical regimen of prednisone. In 1990 the City of SLO made a historic move to protect the health of its citizens by prohibiting smoking in most public places, including bars and restaurants, making it the first in the world to do so. Since then other cities, counties, states and countries have followed its example. Now, close to 20 years later, many cities have gone on to bypass our example. The community of SLO has a unique opportunity to be a leader once again in protecting its community against the harmful effects of secondhand smoke outdoors and decrease the impact of tobacco litter on the environment.

I have bronchial asthma and walking down our downtown streets, sitting in patio areas (except for Linnaea's)and sitting in parks is dangerous to my health. The smoke lingers and many times I have to hold my hand over my mouth when walking or sitting downtown. I hope you will read this article and consider the bad effects of smoking on our children, tourists etc. We were ahead of many places in the cities original ban and now we should finish the job. Nothing will be lost and everything is to be gained by this ban. I know some businesses will complain, but we heard that when the original ban was debated.

In addition to protecting the health of its residents and visitors, I believe this legislation would provide an economic benefit to the City. As a downtown worker and resident, I have frequent negative encounters with secondhand smoke at public events and locations. Particularly, at Farmer's Market, Concert in the Plaza, and outdoor dining areas like Black Sheep or Novo. Black Sheep allows smoking at tables on the patio,where food is also served, and the Novo dining area is adjacent to a bar patio where smoking is allowed. Consequently, I avoid many downtown areas and events, as the exposure to second hand smoke is annoying and harmful. Accordingly, the City enjoys less tax revenue as a result. A simple walk down downtown is often degraded by groups of smokers in front of establishments (Bulls Tavern, Frog and Peach), or simply by a fellow pedestrian in front.....smoking. I encourage the Council to follow staff's recommendation and amend City municipal code to ban tobacco use in outdoor recreation areas. In addition to protecting public health and increasing the enjoyment of our City spaces,this amendment will help to protect tax revenues that the City so desperately needs.

Tobacco-use outdoors in places such as recreational areas, Mission Plaza, the creek walkway, outdoor dining, bus stops, service areas, sidewalks, worksites and public events, tike Farmer's Market, is a major public health problem. As a registered dietitian, I am highly aware of the consequences that tobacco has on the human body as it not only antagonizes but can also lead to many chronic diseases. On a personal level, I am highly sensitive to secondhand smoke (headaches, itchy eyes, coughing). According to the U.S. Surgeon General, "There is no safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke. Breathing even a little secondhand smoke can be harmful to your health." (U.S. Surgeon General, 6/06). Secondhand smoke contains more than 4,000 chemicals, including 50 that are known to cause cancer. Every time a cigarette is smoked, these chemicals are released into the air, polluting our environment. In the course of two weeks a pack a day smoker smokes the equivalent of one tree. Smokers should not have the right to smoke when it negatively impacts nonsmokers and hurts our environment! In 1990 the City of SLO made a historic move to protect the health of its citizens by prohibiting smoking in most public places, including bars and restaurants, making it the first in the world to do so. Since then other cities, counties, states and countries have followed its example. Now, close to 20 years later, many cities have gone on to follow our example.

Tobacco-use outdoors in places such as recreational areas, Mission Plaza, the creek walkway, outdoor dining, bus stops, service areas, sidewalks, worksites and public events,like Farmer's Market, is a major public health problem. As a Cardiac Rehab Therapist at French Hospital Medical Center, I am very close to the many health risks tobacco usage involves. Many of our patients were formerly smokers, and as a result have developed cardiovascular disease (CVD) and congestive obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). They are now prone to severe asthmatic attacks if exposed to even mild second hand tobacco smoke. As a non-profit healthcare provider in our county, we need to advocate for the removal of dangerous health risks in our community. I strongly support any effort to eliminate the problem public second hand smoke causes. In 1990 the City of SLO made a historic move to protect the health of its citizens by prohibiting smoking in most public places, including bars and restaurants, making it the. first in the world to do so.

Among the many reasons to support a comprehensive ban on tobacco products, I am concerned about the issue of social norms regarding youth and smoking. -Every day in America,4,000 children will begin smoking. In fact, 90% of all adult smokers started while in their teens or earlier, and two thirds become daily smokers before they're 19 years. -In our county, I I% adults smoke, 19% of I Ith graders smoke. -There is significant research that shows that adult smoking behavior greatly influences youth smoking behavior. -When young people see adults smoking and chewing tobacco in family areas, like our parks and playgrounds (such as Mitchell Park), our downtown, and events (such as Farmer's Market and Mission Plaza celebrations), the message is sent that the use of tobacco products is an acceptable and popular practice. -Research repeatedly finds that an overwhelming number of smokers wish that they did not smoke, and it is easier to prevent people from starting to smoke than to quit the addiction. -Bans can reduce youth tobacco use by up to 40% In light of these findings, it is incumbent upon us as community health advocates to change social norms so that our children do not recognize tobacco use as an acceptable behavior. Please consider a Tobacco Free Comprehensive Policy as a means to achieve this goal. S incerely, Laura Slaughter, RN "_V Tobacco Control Coalition Member.

In Good Health, Deborah McNeil Amorteguy, DDS SLO C.71Y CLERK November 25, 2009 San Luis Obispo City Council 990 Palm San Luis Obispo, CA 93401 Dear City Council, At its November 12, 2008 meeting the Arroyo Grande Parks and Recreation Commission unanimously recommended the City Council introduce an Ordinance amending the City of Arroyo Grande Municipal Code to ban smoking at City parks, athletic facilities, paths, trails and open spaces. The Commission believes that banning smoking may encourage healthier lifestyles, reduce litter, reduce staff time cleaning up after smokers, and reduce fire hazard. At its January 13;2009 meeting the City Council unanimously approved adoption of the amended Ordinance and expanded the ban to include pedestrian bridges to include the swinging bridge. It is well documented that cigarette, cigar and pipe smoking, and the associated second-hand smoke, are detrimental to human health. Statistics provided by the San Luis Obispo County Public Health Department's Tobacco Control Program indicate that 40,000 Californians die each year from smoking related diseases, including heart disease and lung cancer. In California, 400 lung cancer deaths are attributed to second hand smoke annually. In Arroyo Grande the disposal of cigarette butts and other materials associated with smoking in City parks, on ball fields, and other locations, lead to unsightly and unsanitary conditions and possible hazards to young children, animals, aquatic life and birds. Significant staff time was spent cleaning cigarette butts from group picnic areas, ball field dugouts and other City recreation areas. In addition to the hazards of second hand smoke and time spent cleaning cigarette litter, staff and the Commission were concerned about the possibility of fire in open space areas, such as the James Way Oak Habitat. As Director Recreation and Maintenance Services I am grateful and proud that the City of Arroyo Grande's City Council and its Parks and Recreation Commission voted unanimously to ban smoking at City Parks, athletic facilities, paths, trails and open spaces. I hope the ban will lead to a healthier constituency and reduce staff time spent cleaning up after smokers.

I've been in communication with Christina Lefevre for the past several months and spoke at Atascadero's recent meeting to get NO SMOKING signs put up in the parks. I've pretty much stopped coming to SLO because I end up walking in the street to get away from smoke—I can only hold my breath so long and it makes me really anxious to have to keep running away from the smokers.

The outdoors should be a place where all people are free to go,whether they bathe or not and whether they smoke or not. If I am at Santa Rosa Park and someone's odor or actions offend me,I move. I don't make them move. However,in today's political and social climate I don't see inaction on this item as being an option for the Council. Instead I make the following requests and recommendations regarding the proposed sections 8.16.020 and 8.16.035. 1. Section 8.16.020. Omit public plazas and open space. Discussion follows. 2. Section 8.16.035. a. In paragraphs A, B and E,omit all references to parking areas,sidewalks and bus stops. Each of these items was added to the language of the ordinance without having been discussed,or even mentioned,in the body of the Staff Report. Discussion follows. b. Omit paragraph B and renumber subsequent paragraphs. Leave in place the current procedures found in the California Fre Code. I know of three fires that occurred in the last few years. Two were caused by power lines and one was caused by equipment striking a rock. Although brush fires canbestarted by cigarettes,I know of none in this area that were. c. Omit Mission Plaza from paragraph F. Mission Plaza has several nice places to sit,relax and absorb the beauty and serenity of the area when there is no function occurring and few people are around. Also;this is one of the few places where sufficient receptacles are present in which to put those pesky cigarette butts. (I wish the creek walk could be omitted,also,but that would entail placement of trash receptacles at various locations along both sides of the creek,and I doubt this would be funded.) It seems incongruous and even discriminatory to disallow smoking in parking areas--where vehicles start,idle and drive,all the while generating exhaust gasses and fumes. Since the Staff Report does mention the toxicity of fumes from vehicles,the prohibition against smoking in parking areas seems punitive and more about social engineering than about health. The same can be said with regard to sidewalks and bus stops. The Staff Report states that 87 percent of the population of the county are non-smokers;thus, 13 percent are smokers. Using these percentages to gauge non-smokers and smokers within the city,I estimate there are in excess of 38,000 non-smokers and approximately 5700 smokers. Parents concerned with teaching their children not to smoke should concentrate on the 38,000"good"role models in lieu of the 5700"bad"ones. Although we as a nation talk about the benefits of diversity,we seem to want cookie-cutter people who may look different,but make life choices with which the majority concurs. Thankyou for your time and consideration. I hope the omissions suggested in paragraphs 1 and2,above,are part of the final,approved amendment to the ordinance. . #aRa ebP7 Sincerely, ?rCouNCIL yCDD DIR J'@ 0411 Max E5FIN DIR 0 AGA-0 C"FIRE CHIEF 19-ATTCRNEY 2-PW DIR Sandra Rowley CTCLERIUORIG ?T-POLICE CHF p ?ItEPT HEADS -REO DIR P� n-UT1L DIR BOARD OF TRUSTEES 1204 Nipomo Street Clint Slaughter,M.D., Chair San Luis Obispo, CA 93401 Deborah Hillyard, Vice Chair Pone: (805)544-1777 Allyson Nakasone,Secretary Fax: (805)544-1871 Scott Secrest, Treasurer www.ecos a6,,g P Clint Edwards `l=U FILE ENVIRONMENTAL CENTER Bob Lavelle MEETING AGENDA OF SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY DATE-21 -L10) ITEM #s_Protecting and enhancing the Central Coast since 1971 t�d PL 'OUNCIL ^DD DIR 4CAO i�erIN DIR RECEIVED November 21, 2009 D ACRO FIRE CHIEF ATTORNEY PW DIR (+uOSd 3 0ZU9 San Luis Obispo City Council IPPCLERK/ORIG POLICE CHF 11 DEPT HEADS iREC DIR SLO CITY CLERK City of San Luis Obispo p,Q ;e UTIL DIR 990 Palm Street San Luis Obispo, CA 93401 1,e-A/e24.J nc s f eon «< x Ci7zf ccEe2. Dear Mayor Romero and Members of the San Luis Obispo City Council, On behalf of ECOSLO, I am writing you in support of a ban on tobacco products in our outdoor areas of our city. Tobacco litter, which is the most littered item in the world, is not only unsightly, but toxic to our environment. - Cigarette butts do not readily decompose, but take as much as 25 years to decompose. -Tobacco products leach toxic chemicals, like cadmium, lead, and arsenic, into our San Luis Creek and storm drains, and eventually to our beaches and watershed. - Alarming research has found that when a single cigarette butt is left in a gallon of freshwater, 80% of the aquatic life is killed within one day! The species that died were small but important creatures in the marine food chain. The residual from smokeless tobacco products contains similar harmful chemicals. - Cigarette filters have been found in the stomachs of fish, birds, and other animals. Among the animals of concern in our community is the steelhead trout, an endangered and federally protected species. Furthermore, the health of our environment often translates to the health of our community. - Second hand smoke is a pollutant, to our environment and our bodies. -The California Air Resources Board places environmental tobacco smoke in the same .category as asbestos and car exhaust. - Levels of air pollution due to second hand smoke can be as concentrated outdoors as indoors. Unless there is some sort of ban on the use of tobacco products in our outdoor areas, community members and tourists seeking"fresh air" cannot avoid with certainty this harmful pollutant. It is my hope that you will consider a ban on tobacco products in parts of our city where the health of others is at risk, a ban that would include city parks, events, Mission Plaza, the Creek Walk, and possibly our downtown core area.

Centers of the Central Coast Prior to making history in 1990 by passing the first indoor smoking ban here in San Luis Obispo, business Dental Societ,of leaders raised concerns"about the impact that such a ban "might have on the economy. But just as 20 the Central Coast years ago when these fears were unfounded, so are they today. Consider this::.. San Luis Obispo County Air Pollution Studies have shown that restaurant and bar business have actually increased since smoke-free Control District policies went into effect in California--Sales taxes from restaurants and bars in California rose.to San Luis Obispo $35 million in 2000, up from$25 million in 1995. (2002 CA DHS report) Count; Drug and Alcohol Services The 2005 Zagat Restaurant National Survey reported that customers would eat out significantly more often as a result of smoke-free restaurants, and 89% of all Americans surveyed for their San Ltd;Obispo County•Health 2006 survey thought that"smoking should be totally banned in restaurants." Commission • The City of Beverly Hills, host to travelers from around the world, in 2008 reported the City's new CounntyyMedical'dical' .. San t `Obispo smoke-free dining ordinance"captured the attention of many traveling in and through the City"... Society_ "the public's response had been upbeat and positive"... "the City's hospitality industry remained strong" and ..."has been embraced by the public and business alike producing lasting benefits for San Luis Obispo workers, patrons and the businesses themselves." County Office of L•.ducation • Sheraton and Marriott joined Westin hotels in instituting a chain-wide smoke-free policy, citing San Luis Obispo business reasons as the driving force. Counry Probation Office • More than 25 other California cities, including major tourist destinations like Santa Monica, San Luis Obispo Pasadena, Berkeley, Marin and Santa Cruz, have. passed comprehensive outdoor secondhand County Sheriff's smoke policies already. Department San Luis Obispo And for those who fear smoking bans appear "unfriendly" or that international tourists will be Public Health "deterred"... last March the Walt Disney Parks and Resorts chose to extend its smoking Department restrictions from just California to all of its resorts and parks word wide. In 2006 the estimated TJA annual attendance for these "happy" place. were- Disney World, 16.64 million visitors, Advertising Disneyland, 14.73 million visitors, Epcot, 10.46 million visitors and California Adventure Park, 6 million. (Continued) 39% of San Luis Obispo County residents don't smoke and the majority of voters surveyed support tobacco-free outdoor area 3olicies: • 97%of California voters believe secondhand smoke is harmful to those who inhale it • 60%of California voters were bothered by secondhand smoke exposure in outdoor dining in the past year • 56% of California voters support a law to prohibit smoking in outdoor areas of bars and restaurants, such as patios and outdoor eating areas 77% of California voters support a law to prohibit smoking in front of doors and windows into offices, restaurants and other buildings • 69%of California voters support a law to prohibit smoking at farmer's markets C 60%of California voters support a law to prohibit smoking in outdoor areas of malls and shopping centers 66%of California rural and small town voters support a law prohibiting smoking in downtown areas • 73% of California voters support a law with a comprehensive ban on outdoor smoking in all areas accessible to the public except for designated smoking areas* tobacco-free outdoor area policies save money. Not choosing to ban tobacco will cost our community in the end. Tobacco use places a significant burden on the economy- income wasted on medical expenses and lost productivity, maintenance expenses tc clean up butts and drifting smoke that drives customers away. Tobacco bans show that community leaders care about the quality of life for their citizens and visitors, alike. Making our outdoor areas tobacco-free will make San Luis Obispo more attractive to the local community,as well as tourists. On behalf of the San Luis Obispo County Tobacco Control Coalition I urge the San Luis Obispo City Council to vote for a Comprehensive Tobacco-Free Outdoor Areas policy which covers places such as recreational areas, Mission Plaza, the creek walkway, outdoor dining, bus stops,service areas,sidewalks or entryways, and public events, like Farmer's Market.

The more we can do to eliminate smoking from our community the better. As a resident, I avoid shopping downtown because of the number of smokers who stand on sidewalks to smoke. I'm very sensitive to tobacco smoke and can't risk becoming ill by being downtown with so many smokers taking over the sidewalks and benches. It would be wonderful to be able to enjoy the downtown in the community I live in. By making our city truly tobacco smoke free would allow me to support our merchants and be part of the downtown community. urge you to fully support the Tobacco-Free Outdoor Areas & Events for San Luis Obispo.

Because of the many problems of people smoking directly in front of stores (employees as well as visitors and many homeless) I avoid SLO downtown as much as possible. I do have a heart condition, so want to protect myself. Smokers don't seem to care about anyone else but their own desires. Even when I remember to carry a fan or hold my breath, I suffer from the second-hand smoke. A few years ago I even canceled my PO Box at the downtown PO because of those discourteous smokers. Please see the attached article from the Mayo Clinic website and a "cartoon". Respectfully, Jean E. Anderson San Luis Obispo, California DEC 0 2009 SLO CITY CLERK https:Hmail.slocity.org/exchange/slocitycounciVInbox/Second-hand%20smoke%2Oin%20d... 12/l/2009 Original ar,,,;le:http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/sa,6ndhand-smokeICC00023 Secondhand smoke: Avoid dangers in the air you breathe You don't smoke because you understand the dangers. But what about that thick cloud of secondhand smoke at your favorite restaurant? Or the smoky haze left behind by guests after an evening of partying? What about the effect of secondhand smoke on your children when smoking relatives come to visit? These instances of secondhand smoke present health hazards comparable to smoking. High in toxic chemicals, secondhand smoke plays a role in causing or contributing to a . number of health problems, from cardiovascular disease to cancer. The Surgeon General reported in 2006 that scientific evidence shows there is no safe level of exposure to secondhand smoke. But secondhand smoke is often avoidable. Take steps to protect yourself and those you care about from secondhand smoke. Toxins in secondhand smoke What exactly is secondhand smoke? It's two different forms of smoke from cigarettes, pipes or cigars: • Sidestream smoke comes directly from the burning tobacco product. • Mainstream smoke is smoke that the smoker exhales. Secondhand smoke is also known as environmental tobacco smoke, passive smoking, involuntary smoking and perhaps a more descriptive term, tobacco smoke pollution. Regardless of what you call it, both types of secondhand smoke contain harmful chemicals — and a lot of them. Tobacco smoke contains more than 4,000 chemical compounds, more than 250 of which are toxic. And more than 50 of the chemicals in cigarette smoke are known or suspected to cause cancer. Included in secondhand smoke are: • Formaldehyde • Arsenic • Cadmium • Benzene • Polonium Here are a few more chemicals in secondhand smoke that might sound familiar, along with their effects on health: •Ammonia — irritates your lungs • Carbon monoxide — reduces oxygen in your blood • Methanol — toxic when inhaled or swallowed • Hydrogen cyanide — a potent poison that interferes with respiratory function The dangerous particles in secondhand smoke can linger in the air for hours. Breathing them even for a short time — as little as 20 or 30 minutes — can harm you in a variety of ways. And breathing in secondhand smoke over years can be all the more dangerous. Health threats to adults from secondhand smoke Health experts have recognized the relationship between secondhand smoke and health risks for decades. Research exploring these connections continues. Some of the known or suspected health risks include: Page 1 Original an,.ie:http://www.mayoclinic.com/healthlsa„ondhand-smokeICC00023 Cancer Secondhand smoke is a known risk factor for lung cancer. Experts believe that secondhand smoke is to blame for about 3,400 deaths from lung cancer in adult nonsmokers each year in the United States. Secondhand smoke is also linked to cancer of the nasal sinuses. Heart disease Secondhand smoke harms the cardiovascular system of nonsmokers in many ways. For one thing, it causes heart disease, such as a heart attack. It also damages blood vessels, interferes with circulation and increases the risk of blood clots. It's estimated that some 35,000 nonsmokers die of secondhand smoke-related heart disease in the United States every year. Lung disease Chronic lung ailments, such as bronchitis and asthma, have been associated with secondhand smoke. Exposure to secondhand smoke is also associated with chest tightness at night and feelings of breathlessness after physical activity. Health threats to children from secondhand smoke Secondhand smoke has a marked effect on the health of infants and children. They're more vulnerable than adults are because they're still developing physically and generally have higher breathing rates, which means they may inhale greater quantities of secondhand smoke than adults do. For children who live in households where someone smokes, the effects are worst during the child's first five years, since the child may spend the bulk of that time with a smoking parent or guardian. Ironically, infants are at the highest risk of secondhand smoke from their own mothers. A child who spends just one hour in a very smoky room is inhaling as many dangerous chemicals as if he or she smoked 10 or more cigarettes. And even when parents don't smoke at home or in the car, there can still be negative effects when children are exposed to the tobacco smoke pollution released from the clothing and hair of smoking parents. Here's a look at some of the main health problems in infants and children associated with secondhand smoke. Growth and development Women who are exposed to secondhand smoke during pregnancy are at higher risk of having babies of slightly lower birth weight. This can cause a host of health problems for the baby, such as cerebral palsy or learning disabilities. Women who actively smoke during pregnancy expose their developing baby to passive smoke — the chemicals may pass through the placenta — and put the baby at risk of lower birth weight. An infant who was exposed to secondhand smoke as a developing fetus may be at increased risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Post-birth exposure to secondhand smoke from the mother, father or others in the household also increases the risk of SIDS. Asthma and other respiratory problems Secondhand smoke may cause asthma in children. In children who already have asthma, secondhand smoke can make episodes more frequent and more severe. Page 2 . I Original atude:httpY www.mayoclinic.com/health/saL;ondhand-smoke/CC00023 Secondhand smoke is also tied to infections of the lower respiratory tract, such as bronchitis and pneumonia, especially in those younger than 6. It's also associated with irritation of the upper respiratory tract and a small reduction in lung function. Middle ear conditions Children living in households with smokers are more likely to develop middle ear infections (otitis media). Other health problems related to secondhand smoke For both adults and children, secondhand smoke is linked to a variety of other health problems, including: • Chronic coughing, phlegm and wheezing • Eye and nose irritation • Reduced lung function • Irritability • Dental cavities How to avoid secondhand smoke Limiting exposure to secondhand smoke takes planning. Here are some ways you can reduce or eliminate secondhand smoke in your life. • Don't allow smoking in your home. If family members or guests want to smoke, ask them to step outside. Don't rely on an air conditioner or an open window to clear the air. Running the air conditioner may remove the visible smoke, but it doesn't remove the dangerous particles from circulation. An open window doesn't provide adequate ventilation, either. • Insist that smoking restrictions be enforced in your workplace. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has classified secondhand smoke as a Group A carcinogen, which means it's known to cause cancer in humans. The only way to fully protect nonsmokers from exposure to secondhand smoke is to prevent all smoking in the building. Even powerful ventilation fans don't effectively remove secondhand smoke from the work environment. • Choose smoke-free care facilities. If you take your children to a child care provider, choose one with a no-smoking policy. The same goes for aging relatives. If they live in a long term care facility, make sure it's smoke-free. • Don't allow smoking in your vehicle. If someone must smoke on the road, stop at a rest stop for a smoke break outside the car. • Patronize businesses with no-smoking policies and tell the management that you appreciate the healthy air. Many restaurants and other establishments are entirely smoke-free. • When you absolutely must share a room with people who are smoking, sit as far away from them as possible.. • If your spouse or partner smokes, have him or her refrain from smoking indoors, just as you would with houseguests. Encourage your partner to quit smoking. Mar 8, 2008 Page 3 C�YN�1rK5�iN I � .f t• a 1 r Y �ttr`►`,,119yy "Science has proven that there is no risk-free level of exposure to secondhand smoke.

Carmona, U.S. Surgeon General PCI t� To: City Council From: Jan Howell Marx SLO CITY CLERK Re: Item B6 (Smoking Ordinance Amendment) Date: November 30,2009 I am fully supportive of the staff recommendation. I would like to expand it a bit, however. I understand why the Downtown Association and SLO Chamber do not wish to include the whole Downtown as a smoking prohibition area. However, over the years I have heard many business owners complain about smoking right outside their entrances. I propose that we empower business owners to control whether or not smoking is allowed within 20 feet of their doors, by posting a city approved sign to that effect if they so choose. This could be accomplished, I think,by making changes to the present ordinance in two places. (Changes in bold) 8.16.030 (J) Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, any owner, operator,manager or other person who controls any establishment or facility described in this section may declare that entire establishment or facility and/or twenty(20) feet from the entrance thereto as a nonsmoking area by posting a city approved sign so stating. 8.16.080 (5) Any area exterior to the building in which the establishment or facility is located, unless the management of said establishment or facility has posted a city approved sign as provided in section 8.16.030 (,n herein. These signs should be uniform and attractive, and provided by the city. By requesting a sign, the business would alert the city to its decision. If another business rented the building and did not want to protect its customers from smoking just outside its doors, it could so inform the city. I also would like to see smoking prohibited at Farmers' Markets and outdoor dining areas.

On the other hand, I'm song to dredge all this up again—the many decades of illnesses, jobs I've had to quit because I've gotten very sick with cigarette smoke and the fivstration, anxiety and anger I've been experiencing. My first reaction to smoke about 35 years ago was a very sore throat. It advanced into a post-nasal drip and years later I'd start getting sinusitis requiring antihistamines and anti- biotics. Years later it became bronchitis requiring a lot of medication and I'd lose time from school and work. I became and still become exhausted ending up on the couch with no desire to walk,do any housework,not want to cook or go anywhere. My very patient husband has always pulled up the slack that I've left. Often when I'm like this I cry a lot for unknown reasons. I came to San Luis a couple months ago to look for a new bathing suit. The store that I was trying them on in was on Higuera St. As I was in the dressing room I got assaulted by cigarette smoke that was apparently coming in the back door. I got dressed quickly(I did buy the suit)but the damage was already done. I did develop the post nasal drip and a lot of chest pain and since I was ah-eady being seen by a chest doctor,I had an inhaler to help a little but I was on the couch for a couple of weeks. When I fust came back to this area 20 years ago,this town was a sparkling jewel. If I saw 5 people smoking in the whole area of Arroyo Grande, Pismo and SLO for a whole day that was a lot. The sidewalks were clean,the town was bright and the stores were great. For along time now,the sidewalks m and I ha a walk O t to sta out o oke jaywalk, have to walk the other way around the block to eet out of smoke,hold my breath aid way and mantimes don't bother oin into a store at . started staying away from Rudolph s coffee shop many years ago because people would sit right outside the door smoking with the door open and I couldn't take it. I had a recent similar experience with another coffee shop here on Higuera that recently closed. Farmer's market used to be my big night out. I'd brag about this town to everyone but that is history. I don't come to farmer's market anymore or even shop Barnes&Noble. The area outside B&N is usually populated by smokers and it's just not worth it. I don't walk mission plaza or the creek area I feel really sad about this. I still have a lot of anxiety--whenever I go out anywhere I have to watch what other people are doing. If they are smoking I have to `get out' or get away. My husband also has to `watch' out for me. Many times people walk with their ciggies cupped in their hand and bring them up to smoke and blow it in my face and I am unprepared. What I end up with is chest pain and chest involvement and more time on the couch. I've been a Registered Nurse for 43 years taking care of babies,kids and all ages of adults. One of the first really bad experiences I had as a nurse came when I was working the night shift in NJ about 33 years ago. It was a small nursing home and they let the patients smoke. One night I was walking down the hallway with an old stand-up metal BP machine and I realized that I was dizzy and walking crooked; I'd already had the sore throat so I knew why I was reacting that way. I had to quit that job! That was one of the first jobs I quit because of second-hand smoke. I worked at the State Hospital in Atascadero twice—once as a nurse and the second-time as a patient's rights advocate. I had to quit both times because I got very ill from the smoke. Just a couple more things. 16 years ago it took several anti-biotics to help me get rid of the bronchitis from a smoke reaction and I got severe GI problems that still affect me now. Having tried to help other people with their illnesses for so long, I feel really down that my health is given little or no consideration by many people,businesses and towns. People sit or stand outside supermarket doors and smoke and I have to run in and hold my breath. There area lot of people smoking in this area now. There are still a great majority of people in this state that don't smoke and don't want to have to breathe it. I've been testifying against the effects of second-hand smoke for 30 years now. The first time was at the NJ State Health Dept. in Trenton. As I left the room I had to go down the escalator behind a cigar smoker. I've testified also in many towns in this area;I believe I've testified in San Luis before and also in Grover City before it became Grover Beach, Morro Bay and Atascadero where they have recently posted NO SMOKING signs in the park. Many other areas in the nation are banning outdoor smoking and many areas are considering it. Please make some wise decisions. Please help us all. Thank you To Whom it may concern: I have been visiting San Luis Obispo for many years and have always enjoyed your quaint, small-town city. I especially enjoy shopping downtown,just walking in and out of the shops. On recent visits, I have noticed many people outside these shops smoking, which needless-to-say,bothers me. Statistics show that there are no safe levels to exposure to second-hand smoke. Even outside, I can still smell the side smoke from the smokers. And,the sidewalks are littered with cigarette butts! I would like to continue to visit and shop in downtown SLO especially to help out the "mom's&pop's"which own small businesses. However,I know that the chain stores have smoke-free environments, and I may end up going there instead of downtown. And I have head that there are proposals in front of the City Council to look at banning smoking outside of businesses. If you asked me, I would like to see that happen so that I could walk down your beautiful city sidewalks smoke-free. Thank you for listening, DEC 01 2009 SLO CITY CLERK J Page 1 of 1 �J Coundl,SloCity From: David Bourne[slo_trailrunner@yahoo.com] Sent: Tue 12/1/2009 12:18 PM To: Council,SloCity , p cc: RLULG i/ E® Subject: Smoking Restrictions Attachments: DEC 01 2009 Mr. Mayor and Council Members, SLO CITY CLERK This is a letter of strong support for banning smoking In public places in San Luis Obispo.We support banning smoking in our city parks, Mission Plaza,the creek and surrounding areas,sidewalks and their benches. We also support-no, implore you to ban smoking in outside eating areas. In the downtown creek area alone there are 5 to 6 restaurants and/or bars with seating areas abutting the walkways next to the creek.The tobacco stench is overwhelming.As in the otherareas,the smoke is a toxic health hazard. Businesses have reportedly complained that banning smoking downtown will add to the effects of the current recession. We doubt this. There are many like ourselves who do 1195 patronize restaurants with outside smoking and eating areas.We'd definitely be customers rather than"avoiders"if the air were healthy and fresh. We encourage the Council to take a walk down the 600,700,800 and 900 blocks of Higuera Street,the heart of our downtown. Inhale the smoke that is present. Do you encounter shoppers on the sidewalk benches,or people who appear to be passing through?Walk by the bar on Chorro between Higuera and Monterey to enhance your tour.You may have to excuse yourself to get through the group of smokers.Then go to Mission Plaza and walk by the eating and drinking establishments that are next to the creek. One of our most pleasant-appearing downtown walkways will revulse you with the smell, may cause you to cough,and will contribute to damaging your body due to the effects of the tobacco smoke.And while you are there-or trying to get out of there-think of the babies and children who,with no choice,are Ingesting poisons from the air caused by the adults and teenagers who are smoking around them. As.SLO residents and your constituents,we challenge you to act with the spirit of the City Council of two decades ago: Be courageous and take action that improves the health and quality-of-life of the people you represent.The current issue of a smoking ban was initiated in January. It is now on your agenda in December. Rather than continuing an approach of passive political incrementalism,we respectfully ask you to do the right thing. Do it now,get It over with,and once again be a proactive Council. Make our community healthier,prouder and a much nicer and healthier place to live-in or visit.
