ensuring state-operated, publicly accessible spaces have designated smoking areas undetectable to visitors.

SB 510 requires state-operated public spaces (like government buildings, parks, or facilities open to visitors) that permit smoking to provide designated smoking areas where smoke is not detectable by sight or smell in public or common areas. This applies only to publicly accessible locations, excluding state-controlled areas not open to the public. The bill mandates physical containment measures, such as enclosed or specially engineered structures, to prevent smoke from escaping into shared spaces. It does not require smoking to be allowed in these areas but sets standards for smoke containment if permitted. The fiscal note estimates construction costs of about $2,600 per location for initial setup, with additional maintenance expenses, though the bill does not allocate state funding for these costs.
