THOUSAND OAKS – Golfers can puff and putt on the city-owned Los Robles Golf Course in Thousand Oaks.
The City Council voted 4-1 to relax the city's tough anti-smoking ordinance so golfers can light up.
The vote revises a recently adopted outdoor smoking ordinance to exclude playing areas at the golf course. The revision changes the definition of playgrounds, where smoking is banned within 25 feet.
Councilman Tom Glancy cast the lone dissenting vote, saying he strongly believes in the harmful effects of smoking.
