A No Smoking in San Diego's Mission Beach

No Smoking signs had been showing up in the City of San Diego's Beaches and Parks not too long after the San Diego City Council voted to ban smoking in these public spaces in June.  The ban had not been enforced but enforcement began last Thursday.  Lifeguards and City Park Rangers who are tasked with the enforcement of the ban can issue from $250 to $1,000 fines.  The City Council is looking to change the law sometime later this year as smoking is being allowed on beach "boardwalks" in between parks and beaches.
