SMOKE FREE AIR ACT
(click for additional information)

The Smoke-Free Air Act will go into effect in New Jersey on April 15, 2006. This Act protects New Jersey residents at work and in public from deadly secondhand smoke. The Act states that tobacco smoke constitutes a substantial health hazard, and therefore, it is clearly in the public interest to prohibit smoking in enclosed indoor places.

As a resource to businesses and residents, Franklin Township has provided access to brochures, fact sheets and no-smoking signs on the township's website. The township's website also provides links to other resources for those who want to quit smoking.
