• Bill would ban smoking at Hampton Beach and Hampton Beach State Park (nhpr.org) — Stratham state Sen. Debra Altschiller is backing a bill that would ban smoking at Hampton Beach and Hampton Beach State Park, responding to a constituent’s concerns about secondhand smoke around children. The proposal would let authorized officers tell people to stop smoking but would not impose fines or penalties, making it a behavior-focused, rather than punitive, change for beachgoers.
