The city’s General Government Committee has approved a couple of tweaks to the changes announced previously to the smoking bylaw.

Chair of the General Government Committee, Councillor Tanya Vrebosch says it’s already been decided that smoking and vaping is prohibited on city property and in city parks.

She says permanent and temporary designated smoking areas will still be allowed.

There will also be a public consultation session coming up on July 3rd.

If you can’t make it you can still offer input.

“There’s also an e mail address so if you can’t attend in person you can send us questions on a wide range of issues including where can I smoke if I’m out at a park, where can I smoke if I’m at a Battalion game and how will the changes affect my business,” Vrebosch says.

That e mail address is smoking.by-law@cityofnorthbay.ca
