Proposition K

Proposition K is a measure in Los Angeles designed to limit public exposure to cigarette and tobacco smoke. It requires that all outdoor areas of places like restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues be smoke-free, except for designated sections away from patrons and workers. The goal is to protect people from secondhand smoke and promote a healthier environment while allowing businesses to designate specific outdoor areas for smoking if they choose. Essentially, it balances public health with the rights of property owners to set outdoor smoking policies.
