FENTON - The village will soon prohibit smoking in all public workplaces.
Mayor Eddie B. Alfred, Jr. and alderwomen voted unanimously to pass the ordinance, which will stop anyone from smoking in or near the entrances to any public buildings and workplaces.
“We already have some things in place here at the village hall,” said Alfred. “We support the health of our community. I want to protect our citizens and make the community aware of the dangers of secondhand smoke.”
