Friday, June 17 marks the end of the two-year grace period of the Wichita Falls smoking ban and all bars and restaurants in the city are now smoke-free.
The proposed tobacco ordinance took center stage at Tuesday’s (June 3) City Council meeting as members of the audience voiced their support and concerns over the effects of the proposed ordinance.
The proposed citywide ban on smoking has become a polarizing topic here in Wichita Falls, and over the next few weeks we will take a look at the proposed ordinance and examine how it affects our community.
