Item No. 1 - ORD - WR Code of Laws: Tobacco Retail Business
The Code prohibits tobacco product retailers from operating within 1000 feet of a youth-oriented facility (such as schools, parks, recreation facilities, etc.). The “grandfathering" clause of Code section 11-534(d) nevertheless exempts those retailers who were in place on the effective date of Ordinance 1710 Series 2021, which created the 1000-foot limit. However, if that retailer sells the business, the buyer of the business is not eligible for the grandfathering protection of that Code section.
Councilmember Hoppe, supported by Councilors Dozeman and Hultin, requested that Council consider an ordinance expanding the grandfathering scope of Code 11-534(d) to include purchasers of a protected location. Council provided consensus to proceed with a code amendment on September 9, 2024.
