Winnfield council adopts tobacco-free living and firearm-free zone ordinances
Summary
The Winnfield Mayor and City Council unanimously adopted Ordinance 11 (Tobacco-Free living) and Ordinance 12 (Firearm Free Zone) at its Nov. 12 meeting; both were introduced for adoption and passed by a 5–0 vote.
Mayor Gerald Hamms presided over the Winnfield Mayor and City Council meeting on Nov. 12, 2024, where the council unanimously adopted two ordinances: Ordinance 11 of 2024, titled “Tobacco‑Free living,” and Ordinance 12 of 2024, titled “Firearm Free Zone.” Both measures were introduced for adoption on motions by Councilperson Dudley and seconded by Councilperson Miller and were declared passed by the mayor after 5–0 votes.
The measures were presented for adoption with no public comment recorded in the meeting minutes. Roll-call vote lines in the minutes list BREDA, CALDWELL, HALL, MILLER and PHILLIPS as voting "YEA" on each ordinance; the minutes state the mayor declared each ordinance passed on Nov. 12, 2024.
The ordinances were entered on the meeting agenda under Old Business and carried by unanimous council action. The minutes do not include the full ordinance texts, specific regulatory language, effective dates or implementation steps; those details are not specified in the transcript and were not provided during the meeting.
Next steps: The minutes record the ordinances as adopted and the mayor’s declaration that each ordinance passed. The record does not specify an effective date or implementation timeline; those details would appear in the final ordinance documents or subsequent council records.
