ANN ARBOR, Mich. – The city of Ann Arbor is extending a smoking ban to include 156 of the 159 parks in the city. The ban prohibits the use of cigarettes, cigars, and e-cigarettes.
In 2015, the city banned smoking in 73 of the city parks. The Parks and Recreation department says the ban was expanded because the initial one was well received by park users over the past year.
