Smoking Bans Could Be Coming to Sonoma, California
The city of Sonoma, Calif. could soon be getting a series of smoking bans, starting with its historic Plaza area and eventually moving to all multi-unit residential housing.
Mayor Tom Rouse has proposed a smoking ban in the city Plaza, which is home to green space, shops, restaurants, hotels and other attractions, but doesn’t want to stop there. He is also eyeing banning smoking in all condominiums, apartment buildings and other multi-unit housing. Rouse owns several condominiums in the city and has already prohibited smoking on his property starting at the sidewalk.
No date has been set for the council to consider the proposal. Rouse told PressDemocrat.com that “we are at the early stages of understanding the implications,” adding that he is looking at what has worked in other communities and how enforcement would be handled.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
