Do you think smoke shops pose a threat to the neighborhood?

FRESNO COUNTY, Calif. (FOX26) — A lawsuit filed against Fresno’s smoke shop ordinance has been dismissed in federal court.

This was an ordinance passed back in April that limits where and how many smoke shops can operate and requires new permits for those already open.

With this new ordinance passed earlier this year, 100 smoke shops have been inspected, and 26 smoke shops have decided to close.

The lawsuit, filed by the California Smoke Shop Association, claimed the ordinance violated their constitutional rights.
