Businesses file suit on smoking ban
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) —
Claiming the city has overstepped
its legal bounds, a group of San
Francisco business owners filed
suit to challenge an ordinance
that bans smoking in virtually
every city workplace.
On Tuesday, it became illegal
to smoke in any enclosed place
of employment in the city That
includes retail stores, lobbies or
reception areas, shopping malls,
museums, buses, theaters, gro
i erv stores and supermarkets,
banks, barber shops, elevators
and public restrooms
In other words, smokers are
prohibited from lighting up
almost everywhere except their
own homes, bars, hotels or out
side. Restaurants have until Jan
J to comply.
Past ordinances outlawed
smoking in public areas and
restricted smoking to private
offices and designated rooms.
"It expands the definition of
workplace to include all work
places — whether or not the pub
lic has access," said Tom Rivard,
senior environmental health
inspector at the Department of
Public Health. "I can't think of
a budding in San Francisco that
won’t be covered "
This will affect Candlestick
Park, too. Fans will no longer l>e
able to smoke in their seats — the
ordinance allows smoking only
in the facility's parking lots,
ramps, concourses and boxes
Business owners countered the
law by filing a Superior Court suit
against the city asking that the
ordinance be declared invalid
and unenforceable bet ause it is
preempted by state and federal
laws
"Time and time again. Califor
nians have had their hands tied
by state and loc al governments,
said Tom Cinolla. owner of
Capp's Corner and Now Pisa
restaurants "Business needs to
take a stand against unwanted
and unwarranted government
intervention ..."
Ginella announced the suit at
a news conference Also present
was Steve Parrish, senior vice
president and general counsel for
the New York-lxwed Phillip Mor
ris Inc., a major international
tobacco company
The Board of Supervisors did
exempt bars and saloons in
restaurants from the ordinance
after lobbying by the restaurant
and hotel industries Hotels will
be allowed to keep as much as 2.r>
percent of lobby space and t>r>
percent of their rooms as smok
ing areas Restaurants were giv
en an extra vear to ban smoking

BALLOT
Continued from Page 1
The 1994 measure, coincidentally named Mea
sure 5, was initiated l>v Gresham businessman Frank
Fisenzimmor. who was also the chief sponsor fur
1990’s Measure 5 Supporters say this measure will
lie just as stu:< essful at voting I tooths as the Inst tax
restricting measure.
'Tin afraid people are going to have to accept that
this one is going to pass said Hill Sizemore, dins •
tor of the Taxpayer Protection Initiative committee
We pi( k initiatives that are obviouslv something
the public wants
Sizemore said the committee collected about
40,000 more signatures than necessarv to put the
measure on the ballot
I'hey i ame m so last we couldn’t stop them
* tie said.
In a recent statewide poll taken b\ the group,
H2 percent of people polled said they would sup
port the measure. Sizemore said
The measure was drafted in response to the
increasing of fees and taxes by state and local gov
ernments trying to make up for revenues lost
through 1990's Measure 5, Sizemore said.
"The government spends tax money like it's
Monopoly money," Sizemore said. "They can raise
taxes as much as they want as long as they can con
vince us it's needed.”
If the measure passes, the government would have
to get voter approval to raise fees or pass new tax
es — even for such things as increases in hunting
and fishing license fees.
Although the measure targets state and local gov
ernment. public education would he affected, said
John Moseley. University vice president for research.
Moseley said tile measure would contribute to dam
ages already done by 1990's Measure 5. 1 fie ini
tiative could hurt education because it reduces
funding if voters don't approve foe or tax increas
es, he said.
“Ultimately it depends on what the people
decide.” Moseley said.
The measure exempts increases in tuition from
voter approval, it s possible the government could
raise tuition to make up for money lost in other areas
requiring voter approval.
"Thai's a valid question to raise," Moseley
said "Tuition could lie used to balance losses in the
budget."
The measure could also cut government support
of various University programs The University
would have to cut programs, serve fewer students
or make up for lost funds bv raising tuition. Mose
ley said.
Kandy Mat Donald, a Hugene (aty Council mem
ber and University administrator, said the initia
tive would l*i tragic for state and local governments
I bis measure would lie a disaster, Mat Donald
said It would basically freeze government in its
trut ks
Important government services including
police, maintenam e. and parks and recreation
would Ik* at risk il the measure passes, he said. I lie
government would have to ask voter approval for
every nit-picking tee" and couldn't concentrate
on important issues. MacDonald said
This measure is so sweeping it would do dam
age across the board." he said "Basically it saddles
us with the continual and increased responsibility
sot iety puts on us with diminishing revenues
MacDonald said the City Count.il will oppose the
measure and is working with the Oregon League of
Cities to stop the initiative. However, he fears peo
pie won’t understand the negative effects of the
measure and will be attracted to the idea of con
trolling their taxes.
If this is what people want, 1 feel sorry for them."
MacDonald said. "Our challenge is to educate them
how badly people will fare if the son of Measure
Ti passes,"
Sizemore said the measure limits the number
of elections e*u.h year to two. However, government
can override the measure by a 75 percent vote in
case of emergencies. The government could also
combine requests for foe or tax increases in a sin
gle measure.
Sizemore suid the measure will play a critical role
in the upcoming governor's election. Republican
candidate Denny Smith has already supported the
measure, he said.
"We lielievo people should support this measure
because it gives taxpayers the right to say how much
of their hard-earned money they can take away."
Sizemore said
