Vanderburgh County, IN Public Conduct: Outdoor Smoking Restrictions (2026)

010 as spaces closed in by a roof or ceiling and walls on at least two sides, covering elevators, health care facilities, laundromats, licensed child and adult care facilities, apartment and condominium common areas, polling-place buildings, public transit vehicles and depots, restrooms and lobbies, service lines, shopping malls, and sports arenas, plus all employee work locations. 020(C): smoking is prohibited within ten feet outside any enclosed area where it is already banned, specifically so smoke doesn't drift back in through entrances, windows, or ventilation systems.

020(D). 060(A); complaints from county residents outside Evansville's corporate limits go through the County Clerk's office, while city residents file with the Evansville City Clerk. 030 include private residences (unless used as licensed child care or a health facility), private vehicles, retail tobacco stores, hotel smoking rooms capped at 20% of rentable rooms since January 2, 2009, and certain age-restricted bars and private clubs holding an alcohol permit. 24 does not read as a park-specific or patio-specific smoking ban; it is a building-and-buffer-zone ordinance that happens to extend ten feet outdoors from every covered indoor space, and it does not override any stricter smoking limit a property owner chooses to impose.
