Jefferson City businesses will be smoke-free starting Monday.

Like a similar ordinance in Fulton, Jefferson City's ordinance is 100 percent complaint-driven, said Nathan Nickolaus, city attorney.

Nickolaus outlined some of the ordinance's ins and outs for the News Tribune, including where smoking is allowed, smoking in vehicles, electronic cigarettes, and enforcement.
