It’s official: Smoking is now banned in all parks, playgrounds and sports fields owned or leased by the Village of Ridgewood.
After several months of discussion and scratching a handful of drafts, the Village Council finalized and unanimously approved its smoke-free parks plan last Wednesday.
As part of the initiative, Ridgewood will receive more than 70 signs declaring areas as smoke free. The signs are provided by the Center for Prevention and Counseling (CPC) through a state Department of Health grant at no cost to municipalities that adopt a smoking ban proposal.

Large soda next.
So stupid
Total waste of time and any tax payer money involved.
this town is going down the tubes
(and no, I do not smoke… never did, but I am 100% opposed to this measure)
Calling this a health initative is a joke.
