Henry Co. Bans Smoking in parks
Thinking about smoking a cigarette in a Henry County park? Think again.
The Henry County Commission Monday passed an ordinance that makes inhaling, exhaling, burning or carrying a lit cigar, cigarette, pipe,or any other combustible substance illegal in any of Henry's 27 parks.
The ordinance passed unanimously and takes effect immediately.
Citing concerns over second-hand smoke, commissioners said the ordinance is to protect the health, safety and welfare of the county's residents.
Commissioners also said potential fire damage to the county's 1,200 acres of parks is also a concern.
Signs will soon be posted in each park to notify residents of the new ordinance.
