Pasco, WA Public Conduct: Outdoor Smoking Restrictions (2026)

210 targets smoking and tobacco use in specific high-traffic public spaces rather than imposing a blanket outdoor ban. Subsection (1) singles out Peanuts Park and the Farmers Market by name, both mapped on the code's Exhibit A, as places where smoking and tobacco use are prohibited outright. Subsection (2) adds a buffer requirement: smoking and tobacco use are barred within 25 feet of the perimeter of every park shelter, playground (including water playgrounds), swimming pool, athletic field, and restroom citywide, not just at the two named downtown sites.

020, tying the smoking rule to the city's general public-place smoking framework rather than creating a standalone offense. The ordinance traces to Ord. 4158 (2014) and was carried forward by Ord. 245 numbering. 260 for violations of the chapter not otherwise assigned a specific class. The 25-foot buffer is measured from the perimeter of the listed facility, meaning a smoker on a park bench well outside the shelter or playground footprint but within that radius is still in violation even if not standing directly inside the facility itself.
