Wichita Officials Unveil Smoking Ordinance Campaign

City of Wichita officials today launched a public-education campaign regarding the Wichita smoking ordinance, which takes effect in just 30 days, on September 4. “Businesses and residents are encouraged to become knowledgeable about the ordinance, so they are in compliance with the law,” said Mayor Carl Brewer, who joined several city officials at the City Hall news conference, which can be viewed later at www.wichita.gov. “Act now. It’s here. It’s the law. It’s effective Sept.4.” The ordinance requires that businesses post signage and obtain the necessary permits related to the new smoking restrictions. The signage and additional information also can be found at www.wichita.gov.
