SACRAMENTO -- In 30 days, smoking will be prohibited in the city's 211 parks.
The City Council in May gave preliminary approval for the ban. On Tuesday, the council unanimously voted to make it official.
Some caveats are included. A six-month pilot program was approved to put designated smoking areas in three larger parks: Southside, Curtis and North Laguna parks, said city spokeswoman Jessica Hess.
Also, the smoking ban does not apply to adjoining sidewalks or golf courses.
