[Adopted 12-14-2021 by L.L. No. 67-2021]
The Town Board intends to promote the health, safety, and general
welfare of citizens by regulating the smoking and vaping of cannabis
on streets and sidewalks. Pedestrians and property owners deserve
the right to be free from exposure to smoke while on the public right
of way or adjacent properties. In addition, the Town Board finds that,
due to its intoxicating effects, similar to alcohol, the smoking and
vaping of cannabis on the streets and sidewalks is likely to lead
to traffic and other public safety hazards, and otherwise be detrimental
to nearby properties.
For the purpose of this article, the following terms and phrases
shall have the meanings indicated:
All parts of the plant of the genus Cannabis, whether growing
or not; the seeds thereof; the resin extracted from any part of the
plant; and every compound, manufacture, salt, derivative, mixture,
or preparation of the plant, its seeds or resin. It does not include
the mature stalks of the plant, fiber produced from the stalks, oil
or cake made from the seeds of the plant, any other compound, manufacture,
salt, derivative, mixture, or preparation of the mature stalks (except
the resin extracted therefrom), fiber, oil, or cake, or the sterilized
seed of the plant which is incapable of germination. It does not include
hemp, cannabinoid hemp or hemp extract as defined in section three
of the New York State Cannabis Law or drug products approved by the
Federal Food and Drug Administration.
Electronic device that delivers vapor or an aerosol which
is inhaled by an individual user, and shall include any refill, cartridge
and any other component of such a device.
Burn a lighted cigar, cigarette, pipe or any other matter
or substance which contains cannabis.
Use an electronic device that delivers vapor or an aerosol
which is inhaled by an individual user.
No person shall smoke or vape cannabis on any sidewalks or streets,
whether in a vehicle or otherwise, within the unincorporated area
of the Town of Huntington.
