If the city of Elkhart wants to ban smoking in public places, it will apparently have to do it the hard way.

A restaurant and bar called Barney's has received two separate citations for violating the smoking ban.

Instead of paying the fines, the business owner indicated he wanted to challenge the tickets.

The matter is headed for Elkhart municipal court.

A city spokesman expects a hearing to be scheduled this month or next.

Barney's is the only Elkhart establishment cited thus far for violating the smoking ban, but two other businesses have received warnings.
