The report outlined all concerns and considerations regarding the move to a smokeâ€"free zone. ‘"After reviewing all alternatives available, it is our opinion this objective can be achieved and is necessary to improve the general health, welfare and work environâ€" ment of our employess with the least amount of discomfort to current employees," said Hallman in the written report.

While the report went on to say that a change in smoking habits would have very little, if any, effect on the overall air quality, the report said there is adequate evidence that smoking is a health hazard to all who are subjected to it. Of three alternatives put to Counâ€" cil, only the third is deemed to have merit. It was chosen because it gave a long time for employees to kick the habit, or at least control it, and offers "financial assistance to those who attend a clinic or use preâ€" scribed medication to stop smoking and who subsequently refrain from smoking for a period of six months." Employees will be surveyed throughout the first year for input. The City of Burlington has made the same such steps and is ready to put the stamp on cigarette smokers by the end of 1985.
