That Title 8 entitled “Health and Safety” be amended in Chapter 8.28 entitled “Restriction on Youth Access to Tobacco Products and in Smoking in Workplaces and Public Places” by amending 8.28.050 entitled “ Definitions for Prohibition of Smoking in Workplaces” by adding a new definition entitled Workplace” that reads as follows:

WORKPLACE. Any area or structure, whether enclosed or unenclosed, under the control of an employer at which one or more employees perform services for their employer. Workplace includes, but is not limited to, hallways, stairwells, lobbies, elevators, restrooms facilities, work areas, construction sites, temporary offices such as trailers, and vehicles. Workplace shall not include any space specifically and clearly designated by the employer, and approved by the Public Health Department, in the case of all non-construction related workplaces and Inspectional Services Department for any projects involving a building permit, as an outdoor smoking area for employees only.

Passed to a second reading at the City Council meeting held on March 6, 2017 and on or after March 20, 2017 the question comes on passing to be ordained.
