No smoking law back on Rio Rancho council agenda
Rio Rancho council reconsiders a no smoking ordinance after a July vote defeated the proposal. Mayor Tom Swisstack discussed effects on small businesses with area shopkeepers, with the act returning to the council agenda for 7 p.m. in City Hall. The measure would ban smoking in city facilities public places and workplaces, and require private businesses to prohibit smoking except in designated areas.
