Is the Houston smoking ban being enforced?

Question

I'm confused... Has the smoking ban been revoked? I see people lighting up everywhere again! The first few months of the ban were great. I loved being able to breath easily in bars/clubs. I tried googling articles on the smoking ban to see if I had missed something, but all I get are really old articles. Anyone out there know something I don't about the ban?

Answer 1

Yeah it's being mostly enforced, but just as I predicted, some of the smaller bars and restaurants will be less likely to strictly enforce the rule as time goes on or when the establishment is not so busy.

Answer 2

It is up to the bar to enforce it. Unless they get turned in...TURN 'EM IN!!!

Answer 3

cops turn their backs because they get paid 100 bucks from the bars who allow it,  no 100 bucks and they'll be busted

Answer 4

Do not light up in any eatery within Houston city limits. That is all.
