The Michigan Daily - Wednesday, February 17, 1999 - 7
M~edical society pushes for
local autonomy on smoking
I Ooze and aahs
MARQUETTE (AP) - Local gov-
ernments should be able to impose
touglher anti-smoking restrictions in
lbic places than the state prescribes,
-Michigan State Medical Society
says.
The society will ask the Legislature
to ; * it local governments that authori-
ty,'a pokesperson said. Meanwhile, it is
supporting Marquette's appeal of a
judg0's ruling that the power doesn't
already exist.
"Thinking strategically, the quickest
way is to change the law," medical soci-
ety. spokesperson David Fox told The
ning Journal of Marquette yesterday.
If you do it through the court sys-
tem, you may have a battle ... every
timeyou have a situation like this," Fox
said.
Circuit Court Judge John Weber last
month sided with a half-dozen
Marquette restaurants that sued the city
in December to block a ban on smoking
in restaurants that took effect Jan. 1.
Weber ruled that state law doesn't
allow local smoking restrictions more
stringent than those in the Michigan
Public Health Code. It provides that
restaurants with seating for less than 50
patrons must designate 25 percent of its
seating capacity for nonsmokers.
Restaurants that seat more than 50
must designate half of seating for non-
smokers.
The city is appealing to the state
Court of Appeals. The medical society
says it will file a brief supporting the
city's position. The American Cancer
Society, the American Lung
Association and the American Heart
Association have promised to do like-
wise.
Marquette City Attorney Willard
Martin said he was glad the medical
society was asking the Legislature to
get involved.
"It's consistent with what we're try-
ing to do," Martin said.
Fox said medical society lobbyists
believe there is a better than even
chance of getting the law changed by
the midsummer recess, which typically
comes in July.
The Michigan Restaurant
Association and the Michigan Chamber
of Commerce are helping the local
restaurants fight the ordinance. They
contend that businesses should decide
for themselves whether to allow smok-
ing.
Supporters of the ordinance say it's
impossible to contain secondhand
smoke within smoking sections, which
puts nonsmoking customers and restau-
rant employees at risk.
