Arlington's new smoking ordinance is on hold for now, after a group of business owners filed a lawsuit to stop its enforcement. Opponents say what's wrong is the ordinance bans smoking in places like pools halls and bars but favors bingo parlors and it's retroactive. There have been some hard knocks between the city and businesses who believe a new smoking ordinance will make it a struggle to stay in business.
