Stony Stratford Smoking Ban Back On Town Council's Agenda

proposed smoking

Councillor Paul Bartlett's proposal to ban smoking in large areas within the Stony Stratford will be discussed again at the Town Council meeting tomorrow evening, Tuesday 17th January.

The new proposal reads as follows:

Stony Stratford Town Council seeks the implementation of a smoking ban by means of a bye-law and relevant consultation at the following locations:
All publicly owned spaces (Parks Trust, NHS, MKC, SSTC etc) that are parkland, children's play areas; public car parks (including inside vehicles); within 25 metres of school premises; 'greens' such as Horsefair Green, Fullers Slade; Galley Hill, all allotments, bus shelters and within 25 metres of public toilets and public buildings.

Two previous proposals relating to the proposed smoking ban were discussed at the Town Council meeting in July 2011. Both proposals were rejected as nobody present at the meeting was prepared to second either of them.
