Smoking in Allen County, Indiana

On June 1, 2007, Allen County Commissioners passed Article 8 Smoking Ordinance. The City of Fort Wayne also passed Bill No. G-07-06-05. Although separate regulations, both regulate smoking in their respective jurisdiction.

Both jurisdictions, Allen County, and the City of Fort Wayne, are responsible for enforcing their own respective ordinance. To determine what ordinance should be followed in a certain area click here.

The cities of Huntertown, Leo-Cedarville, Woodburn, and New Haven have all opted-out of the Allen County ordinance and have enacted their own.
