Statewide, implementation of the law regarding Class A and B club exemptions has been delayed due to a lawsuit. The exemption in the law is for Class A and B clubs licensed before January 1, 2009. The law states that if these clubs notify the Secretary of the Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) by September 28, 2010, they may allow smoking. The lawsuit concerns the license date of January 1, 2009. Pending the court outcome, all Class A and B clubs, regardless of licensure date, can allow smoking if they submitted an exemption form to KDHE by September 28, 2010. Please be advised that the local city or county smoking laws remain in effect and may be stricter than the state law.
