The Glendale Smoke-Free Ordinance went into effect on Nov. 6 but will not affect the current state code prohibiting smokers from being 20-feet from building entrances, windows and open vents.
Steven P. Wagg, chief of police, says that since GCC is a special district that devises their own enforcements, the city's ban will not apply to the college but the 20 feet rule, which the "county has asked for health reasons that there's no smoking within 20 feet of a door or an operable window," will apply.
