Should Littleton regulate Electronic Cigarettes?

Should the City of Littleton regulate the use of electronic cigarettes in public places in a manner similar to the current regulation of smoking tobacco or marijuana?

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) defines electronic cigarettes, also known as e-cigarettes as, "battery-operated products designed to deliver nicotine, flavor and other chemicals. They turn chemicals, including highly addictive nicotine, into an aerosol that is inhaled by the user."

The FDA maintains a web page on E-Cigarettes at: http://www.fda.gov/NewsEvents/PublicHealthFocus/ucm172906.htm

The City of Littleton's existing law on "No Smoking Provisions" can be found in the Littleton Municipal Code 6-10-1 through 6-10-5 and are provided below as links:
