The Smoke-Free Arizona Act (http://www.azdhs.gov/preparedness/epidemiology-disease-control/smoke-free-arizona/index.php) prohibits anyone, including employees, vendors, and customers from smoking inside the premises and within 20 feet of all entrances to the premises. The Melting Point is, therefore, a non-smoking facility and does not have any place on the premises where people can legally smoke.
