Hollywood, FL Public Conduct: Outdoor Smoking Restrictions (2026)

03 lists prohibited activities across the city's park system, and its third clause makes it unlawful for anyone to smoke cigarettes, filtered cigars, pipes, or use any other lighted tobacco product upon the public parks, playgrounds, or fields of the city. That wording sweeps in more than cigarettes: filtered cigars and pipes are named specifically, and the closing phrase 'any other lighted tobacco product' extends the ban to items the ordinance does not individually list, which under Florida's home-rule authority over parks it controls falls outside the state Clean Indoor Air Act's general preemption of workplace smoking rules because it targets outdoor recreational property the city itself owns and manages.

01(4) and (8), on park property, and restricts skateboarding at ArtsPark at Young Circle to its perimeter sidewalk, showing the parks ordinance is a consolidated conduct code rather than a standalone smoking law. The current smoking clause was most recently amended by Ordinance O-2023-05, passed April 4, 2023, following earlier amendments in 2007 and 2022, indicating the city has actively revisited and tightened this section rather than leaving it static since its 1998 origin.
