Omaha’s partial smoking ban will go up in smoke at 10 a.m. Monday.
That’s when Mayor Mike Fahey, who wanted a full smoking ban or none at all, will sign his veto of last week’s City Council action.
The council approved a ban on smoking in public places – except in stand-alone bars, places holding keno licenses, Horseman’s Park and places such as veterans halls.
The ban passed on a 4-3 vote. A fifth vote would be needed to override Fahey’s veto.
