Smoking in Wyoming is governed by the Dr. Ron Davis Smoke-Free Air Act (MCL 333.12601 et seq.), which prohibits smoking in most enclosed workplaces and public places statewide. The City can restrict smoking on City property; Michigan school grounds are smoke-free under MCL 380.1300.
Michigan's Dr. Ron Davis Smoke-Free Air Act (Public Act 188 of 2009, codified at MCL 333.12601 to 333.12617) controls indoor-smoking restrictions in Wyoming. The Act bans smoking in most enclosed public places and food-service establishments statewide, with narrow exceptions for cigar bars, tobacco-specialty retailers, and Detroit casino floors that pre-existed the Act. The Kent County Health Department enforces the Act in Wyoming alongside the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services. School grounds are smoke-free under MCL 380.1300. Michigan does not impose a broad statutory bar on local outdoor-smoking rules, so Wyoming may restrict smoking on City-owned property — parks, plazas, and City Hall grounds at 1155 28th Street SW — through the City Code and posted park rules. Michigan PA 18 of 2019 raised the tobacco purchase age to 21 (Tobacco 21).
Smoke-Free Air Act violations bring civil fines under MCL 333.12613 — $100 for a first individual violation, escalating for repeat offenses, and up to $500 per day for establishments that fail to post signs or enforce. The Kent County Health Department investigates; the 62-A District Court hears citations.
