As of May 1, 2010, all workplaces, bars, and restaurants in Michigan will be smoke-free, County Executive Thomas L. Hickner says in his new newsletter published on line.

Compliance with the law is the responsibility of the owner, manager, or other person in charge of the establishment. Local health departments are also responsible for the enforcement of the smoke-free law.

The Bay County Health Department will be holding free public informational sessions regarding the smoke-free law in April.
