Clean Air Calabasas-Did You Get Your Pamphlet?

We're wondering how much this cost the city. The beautiful color printed pamphlet explaining the 'comprehensive secondhand smoke control ordinance', didn't come cheap. Along with the cost of mailing and enforcement, it looks like the money the city is sitting on is going somewhere.

Four page memos were also sent out to business owners earlier in the week with a list of rules and regulations including keeping a "designated smoking area" 20 feet away from oak trees. Oak trees?

Consequences for 'offending others by smoking' are included in the Pamphlet and range from warnings, tickets and possible civil lawsuits.

Personally we're offended by the whole affair.
