It’s been nearly a year since the Smoke-Free Air Law took effect in the state of Indiana, and business-owners across the state have had to put up signage ensuring patrons are aware of the new smoking ban and adjust to the new law. According to IN.gov, the purpose of the Indiana Smoke-Free Air Law is to protect Hoosiers from the harmful effects of exposure to secondhand smoke, and restaurants and most business across the state are now smoke-free.
Gus Ress, owner of Kostas Restaurant in Winamac, said the law took some getting used to but they have adjusted, and the customers have too.
