The Grey Bruce Health Unit is reminding you about smoking rules on bar and restaurant patios.
Officials say with nice weather arriving its time to revisit these rules.
The Smoke Free Ontario Act prohibits smoking on covered or partially covered patios
The legislation is designed to protect the health of the public from second hand smoke.
Smoking may be allowed on a patio when the patio is not adjacent to another patio within the establishment that is smoke free.
Smoking may also be allowed if it is separated by half a story from a smoke free patio.
The Grey Bruce Health Unit also says a patio becomes smoke free if food or drink is served in the area.
