We forbid smoking and using tobacco products on all of our grounds. It's also a part of our Code of Conduct. It doesn't specifically mention e-cigarettes, although I don't think it would be a far stretch to include e-cigarettes under "smoking". My understanding

<pre style="margin-left:.5in">The first has to do with patrons with personal hygiene challenges. Do you have a policy that deals with this, and if so, what is your policy?
