CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Mecklenburg County wants you to put your cigarette butts out in their parks starting March 2015. The ordinance comes after a 8-1 vote during Tuesday night’s county commissioner’s meeting.

However, the ordinance does not apply to 18 of the regional parks and some of the county-owned, or county-run, golf courses.

Rising crowdsourced for the mixed reactions the new policy is getting.
