I predict that it will.
There is a meeting tomorrow at the Campbell County Fiscal Courthouse at 7:00 PM that will, more than likely, produce a vote.
If all county commissioners vote as they said they would (Painter, Garrett, Rechtin), the ban that would have gone into affect would be repealed.
Whether or not you agree with this, four Campbell County bars have voluntarily gone smoke free, and many restaurants are doing the same. I can quote many different arguments for and against, but at the end of the day, the free market and the invisible hand of our capitalistic nature will do (and should do) the choosing for us.
I don’t have the statistics, but it seems as if the anecdotal evidence (on this blog at least) points to a vocal majority who have a desire for smoke free restaurants. But perhaps it’s just the squeaky wheel factor. I’d like to hear some comments for repeal of the ban.
