Spring Hill may ban smoking in public parks - WKRN, Nashville News, Nashville Weather and Sports

Tobacco products may soon be banned from public parks in Spring Hill if a proposal passes during a final reading Monday night.

The proposed ordinance would mike it a minor offense to use tobacco at any city park.

Alderman Keith Hudson proposed the idea earlier this year.

The new code would come with a fine of $138 if violated.

Bark Park, Evans Park and Harvey Park are all included in the proposal.

The board recently voted 5-4 in favor of the code change.
