Wildwood, North Wildwood weigh smoking bans

More Jersey Shore communities are considering smoking bans.

Wildwood and North Wildwood are the two latest shore communities to consider smoking bans.

If local ordinances pass in both communities, a smoking ban for about 38 blocks of boardwalk would take effect on Jan. 1, 2018, the Press of Atlantic City reported.

The Wildwoods are not the first beach towns to take steps to prevent smokers from lighting up.
