Why do they need an ordinance that mimics the state law? Am I missing something here? Is Hurley not really in Wisconsin? A new law when there is one already on the books?
Maybe they just have too much snow already!

Hurley plans to adopt anti-smoking ordinance
HURLEY -- The Hurley City Council plans to adopt an anti-smoking ordinance to cover downtown taverns.
Chief of police Dan Erspamer said his department had received six recent complaints about smoking in city taverns. "We did pretty good through the summer, but as the weather has changed...," he said, not finishing the sentence.
Council members Tuesday agreed city attorney A. Dennis Cossi will draw up an ordinance. Cossi said it will mimic the state law that bans smoking in public places." Hurley plans to adopt anti-smoking ordinance

They "need" a local ordinance so they can CHARGE under the local ordinance, keeping the MONEY in Hurley's pocket rather than in the COunty's.
Follow the money.
Dad,
so the state passed the bill to for counties to get the money and local towns get nothing without a local law?
What the heck is going on here? This is insane!
Have a GREAT week.
