Where should no smoking signs be posted?
The only guidance in the law on sign location is that signs should be posted in a conspicuous place. Section 4 of the Kansas Indoor Clean Air Act states, “The proprietor or other person in charge of the premises of a public place, or other area where smoking is prohibited, shall post or cause to be posted in a conspicuous place signs displaying the international no smoking symbol and clearly stating that smoking is prohibited by state law.” The law will be enforced by local law enforcement. Therefore, it is the city, county or district attorney who will interpret the law. It is recommended that you contact the city, county or district attorney for further clarification.
