Question

Answer 1

Yes, but not for long. Smoke up

Answer 2

You can now..........but soon you won't be able too:

On Jan. 24, 2008, Mayor Mark Funkhouser signed into law a smoking ordinance that had been approved by the City Council. The ordinance took effect March 24, 2008, and bans the smoking of tobacco products in any place that may be considered an enclosed or indoor workplace, with the exception of bars, casino gaming floors, and certain restaurants based on criteria listed below..

On April 8, 2008, voters approved a more stringent ordinance that eliminates smoking in bars and restaurants. This ordinance will go into effect June 7, 2008. Until that time, the Health Department will continue to enforce the current ordinance.

The purpose of these smoking ordinances is to protect those working in Kansas City, Mo., from the dangers of secondhand or environmental tobacco smoke.

It does not regulate what anyone does on their own personal time, in their own homes or cars (unless they are being used as a public business, for example a day care or taxi) or outside.
