The Impact of Anchorage's 2000 and 2007 Smoke-Free Policies on Select Restaurants and Bars

Abstract

The American Lung Association in Alaska (ALAA) asked the Institute of Social and Economic Research (ISER) to investigate the impact of the Anchorage 2000 and 2007 Clean Indoor Air (CIA) municipal ordinances on selected restaurants and bars. As previous U.S. studies have been conducted that speak to the economic and health impacts of CIA laws, ALAA also requested that ISER synthesize results of these existing studies and conduct a survey on restaurant and bar representatives’ perceptions of the impact of the ordinances.The American Lung Association in AlaskaExecutive Summary / Introduction / Anchorage Municipal Ordinances / Policy Enforcement / Literature Review: Impact of Smoke-Free Laws on Employment and Air Quality / Methodology / Key Informant Interview Findings / Survey Findings / Limitations / References / Appendice
