The Biddeford City Council tabled a proposal to ban smoking at the city's parks and beaches on Tuesday night.
Councilors discussed the issue for an hour but could not reach agreement, according to Councilor Raymond Gagnon.
The proposed ordinance, first introduced two weeks ago, would prohibit use of tobacco products within 200 feet of some city parks. Tobacco would also be banned at Biddeford Pool Beach, Middle Beach, Fortunes Rocks Beach and Rotary Park Beach.
Gagnon said the council will reconsider the ordinance in two weeks.
