Frequently Asked Questions

Can I smoke at Roseville's city golf courses?
Yes. Section 8.02.200(B)(2) bans smoking in every city park but states that the smoking prohibition does not apply to city-owned golf courses, meaning Diamond Oaks Municipal Golf Course and Woodcreek Golf Club are exempt from the park smoking ban, even though other park rules and their separate closing hours still apply there.
Does the park smoking ban cover vaping or e-cigarettes?
The ordinance bans smoking, lighting, or carrying a lighted pipe, cigar, cigarette, or other smoking device of any kind, which is broad enough to reach any lit or vapor-producing device, but it does not name e-cigarettes specifically. The city posts 'No Smoking' signs in every park, and enforcement follows the same infraction process as other park violations.
What's the penalty for smoking in a Roseville park?
It's an infraction under § 8.02.210. Following the city's general infraction schedule, a first violation of the same rule carries up to a $100 fine, a second within 12 months up to $200, and a third or later repeat up to $500, after which the city attorney may charge further repeats as a misdemeanor.
