BEECH GROVE, Ind. (WISH) - Beech Grove smokers can continue smoking in local bars, after the city council there voted down a smoking ban proposal.
Beech Grove City Council voted 2-5 Monday night on the proposal to ban smoking in local bars; the measure failed.
Before the vote, about 20 people spoke at the meeting, including four bar owners.
Bar owners told the council that they believed people should have the right to choose whether they want to smoke.
Indianapolis remains under a smoking ban. A statewide smoking ban that began this year exempts bars and taverns.
