Gov. Phil Murphy signed a bill on the boardwalk in Long Branch Friday that will ban smoking on most of New Jersey`s beaches, boardwalks and public parks. About 15 percent of public spaces can be reserved by a municipality for smokers and parking lots are also exempt. But if you are caught lighting up in the majority non-smoking areas, you could face some stiff fines starting in January 2019.
