Summary
Perrysburg officials voted down a proposed parks smoking ban, so people can still light up in city parks. The rejected rule could have carried penalties as severe as jail time for violators. That means no new smoke-free enforcement at parks—at least for now.

Impact analysis
The city avoids the cost of policing and prosecuting park smoking violations, though it may still bear litter and public-health costs tied to smoking in parks.
Smokers and anyone who wants parks free of new smoking penalties come out ahead.
Families, children, and people with respiratory conditions who wanted smoke-free parks lose the protection the ban would have offered.
