This is taken from the boulder law.

7. Where smoking is not prohibited
A. Notwithstanding any other provision of this article to the contrary, the following areas shall be exempt from the smoking prohibitions set forth above:
1. Private residences, except when used as licensed child-care, certified adult day care or health care facilities, including the half hour before and after such use.
2. Up to twenty percent (20%) of guest rooms in lodging establishments, including but not limited to bed and breakfasts, hotels, motels, and inns.
3. Retail tobacco stores.
4. Performance halls to the extent necessary to allow smoking by a performer as part of a stage production.
5. Outdoor places of employment.
6. Private clubs.
B. Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, any owner, operator, manager or other person who controls any establishment described in this section may declare that entire establishment, facility, or grounds as smoke-free.

Also I read that it is government owned vehicles...I did not see a ban on privately owned vehicles.

Here is Boulders definition of.....

9. "Public Place" means any enclosed area to which the public is invited or in which the public is permitted, including but not limited to, attached and freestanding bars, banks, commercial bingo facilities, convention halls, licensed child-care or certified adult day care, medical or health care facilities, educational facilities, laundromats, performance halls, polling places, professional offices, public transportation facilities and vehicles, reception areas, restaurants, retail food production and marketing/grocery establishments, retail service establishments, retail stores, sports arenas, and theaters. All areas of an establishment that are open to, or customarily used by, the general public, including but not limited to elevators, restrooms, lobbies, reception areas, hallways, waiting rooms, and other common area, are "public places." A private residence is not considered a "public place" except when used as a licensed child-care, certified adult day care, or health care facility, and shall not be subject to this ordinance except for the time period beginning one half hour before and ending one half hour after the hours of operation of such licensed child-care, certified adult day care or health care facility. Common areas in apartment buildings, condominiums, trailer parks, retirement facilities, nursing homes and other multiple-unit residential facilities are "public places." A private club is considered a "public place" only when functions are held at the club which are open to the general public and are not restricted to the members of the club.
