The latest move by the San Francisco Board of Supervisors may have gone one toke over the line. The city and county officials on Tuesday gave initial approval to a proposed ban on cigarette smoking and vaping inside apartments — but exempted marijuana smoking from the plan, according to reports. The supervisors voted 10-1, with Supervisor Dean Preston dissenting, to protect renters from secondhand tobacco smoke in buildings with three or more units. The decision makes San Francisco the largest city in the U.S. to ban tobacco smoking inside apartments. “One should not have to live in a single-family home to be able to breathe clean air,” said outgoing board President Norman Yee, who wrote the ordinance, according to the San Francisco Chronicle. “That right should exist for every single person and family, regardless of where they live or what their income is.”
