Carlsbad Municipal Code Ch. 6.18 Electronic Cigarettes

In any location where the smoking of pipes, cigars or cigarettes is prohibited by any federal, state or local law, it shall also be unlawful for any person to use an electronic cigarette as defined in California Health and Safety Code Section 119405 ("e-cigarette") or a similar device intended to emulate smoking, which permits a person to inhale vapors or mists that may or may not include nicotine. The provisions of this chapter do not apply in any circumstance where federal or state law regulates smoking or the use of e-cigarettes, if the federal or state law is more restrictive.
