Summary

The December 2005 Beaver Beacon reported that Charlevoix County voters rejected a workplace smoking regulation, even though the other counties in the Northwest Michigan Community Health Agency district approved the regional clean-indoor-air rule.

Evidence limits

This record follows the newspaper’s account of the vote and regulation; it is not an independent legal history of the rule’s implementation.
