PREPARED THE ORIGINAL ORDINANCE BUT ALSO DEVELOPED AN ALTERNATIVE.
TOTAL TOBACCO RETAILERS AT THE CURRENT COUNT, WHICH IS ESTIMATED AT
[00:10:02]
ESTABLISHING A NEW PERMIT PROCESS FOR ALL EXISTING AND FUTURE OPERATORS.IF THE ORIGINAL STAFF RECOMMENDED ORDINANCE IS ADOPTED BY ITSELF, THEN NEW SMOKE SHOPS WOULD BE PROHIBITED BUT NO PERMITTING PROCESS.
PERMIT WOULD BE REQUIRED OF ANY CURRENT OR FUTURE TOBACCO RETAILERS IN THE CITY.
IF THE ALTERNATE ORDINANCE IS ADOPTED BY ITSELF, NEW SMOKE SHOPS COULD OPEN BUT ONLY WITHIN THE LIMIT OF APPROXIMATELY 68.
TOBACCO RETAILERS CURRENTLY OPERATING IN THE CITY AND ALL TOBACCO RETAILERS WOULD BE REQUIRED TO GO THROUGH THE CITY'S NEW PERMITTING CAA.

IF NEITHER ORDINANCE IS ADOPTED, THE MORATORIUM NEW SHOPS WILL BE ABLE TO OPEN AND WILL BE ALLOWED TO OPERATE AS A GENERAL RETAIL USE.
TITLE 18 ZONING OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE.
IF COUNCIL REJECTS THE SMOKE BAN IS MONITORING SENATE BILL 1314 OVER SMOKE EFFECTIVE JULY 1ST, 2027, WHICH WOULD SET BASELINE STATE STANDARDS FOR OPERATING HOURS, LOCATIONS AND BAN WHICH WOULD ALLOW WHILE ALLOWING LOCAL JURISDICTIONS ENFORCE TO REGULATE TOBACCO RETAILERS ON SEPTEMBER 15TH, 2025.
EXTEND THE SMOKE SHOP MORATORIUM THE CITY COUNCIL DIRECTED STAFF TO RESEARCH AND REPORT BACK OUR OPTIONS FOR REGULATING ALL TOBACCO RETAILERS IN THE CITY, INCLUDING SMOKE SHOPS.
REQUEST INCLUDED ENFORCEMENT ASSESSING THE COST IMPLICATIONS OF INCREASING INSPECTION ENFORCEMENT FOR NEW AND EXISTING TOBACCO RETAILERS.
LICENSING THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CITY LICENSING AND NEW TOBACCO RETAILERS RESTRICTIONS, RESTRICTIONS FOR TOBACCO RETAILERS IN OTHER CITIES AND CRIME IMPACT ANALYSIS.
INVESTIGATE EVIDENCE INCREASED TO TOBACCO RETAILER BASED ON THIS RESEARCH RECOMMENDS A TOBACCO RETAILER LICENSE RL OR THIS WOULD REPEAL CHAPTER WHICH HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED SINCE 1999 AND ESTABLISHED NEW CHAPTER RL WOULD APPLY TO ANYONE SELLING TOBACCO NICOTINES OR PARAPHERNALIA EXCLUDING APPROVED AND WOULD SUPPLEMENT EXISTING STATE LICENSING REQUIREMENTS.
APPLICATIONS WOULD BE SUBMITTED THROUGH THE FINANCE DEPARTMENT ALONGSIDE BUSINESS APPLICATIONS OR RENEWALS WITH REVIEW BY COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT LICENSES.
WOULD LICENSES WOULD REQUIRE ANNUAL RENEWAL AND REMAIN NONTRANSFERABLE.
STAFF RECOMMENDS WAIVING ALL PROCESSING AND LICENSEES DURING THE ONE PILOT PROGRAM.
THE PROPOSED TOBACCO RETAILER LICENSE ORDINANCE THAT THREE MAIN THINGS.
FIRST, FOR EXISTING RETAILERS, CURRENT BUSINESSES WOULD BE GRANDFATHERED IN, RENEW, EXEMPT FROM THE SCHOOLS, PARKES AND TRANSFERABLE.
WE ALTERNATE LANGUAGE COUNCIL WANTS TO ALLOW TRANSFERS FOR BUSINESSES OPEN 14 YEARS OR MORE.
SECOND, IT UPDATES OUR LOCAL RULES, OUR CODE STATE BY RAISING LEGAL 21.
IT ALSO BANS FLAVORED TOBACCO VENING MACHINES AND DISCOUNTS.
GENERAL RETAILERS LIKE GROCERY STORES AND GAS STATIONS ALREADY MEET MOST THESE RULES SO THEIR EXTRA WORKLOAD WOULD BE MINIMAL.
FINALLY, ENFORCEMENT ORDINANCE AUTHORIZES ANNUAL INSPECTIONS BY POLICE AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BY FUTURE ALSO SETS PENALTY PROCESS
[00:15:01]
INCLUDING HEARING APPEAL VOCATION.THIS DRAFT ORDINANCE WAS DEVELOPED BASED ON THE FOUR AREAS OF ERT OF THE CITY.
COUNCIL REQUESTED INCREASED ENFORCEMENT LICENSE FEE STRUCTURE RESTRICTIONS AND CRIME ANALYSIS WHICH INCREASED STATE STATEWIDE TOBACCO ENFORCEMENT UNDERCOVER COMPLIANCE CHECKS LOCALLY.
LAHABRA CURRENTLY USES A REACTIVE ENFORCEMENT MODEL WITH POLICE AND CODE ENFORCEMENT RESPONDING ONLY TO COMPLAINTS OR EMERGENCY CALLS.
DOES NOT CURRENTLY CONDUCT PROACTIVE INSPECTIONS OR UNDERCOVER OPERATIONS.
WHERE DO WE HAVE A DEDICATED SOURCE FOR THEM? THAT SAID NEITHER POLICE, NO COURT ENFORCEMENT REPORT.
AN ABOVE AVERAGE NUMBER OF CALLS FOR SERVICE FOR OUR EXISTING TOBACCO RETAILERS COMPARED TO THE PROPOSED ORDINANCE FOR CONSOLIDATE ALL CITY TOBACCO REGULATIONS.
LICENSE AND RENEWAL WILL DEPEND ON BY CODE ENFORCEMENT AND WILL FULLY THIS PROACTIVE ENFORCEMENT COVERING STAFF TIME MANAGEMENT, LICENSING, EXCUSE STATE LAW, EXPLICIT CITIES TO LOCAL TOBACCOS AND REVOKE THEM FOR VIOLATIONS STATEWIDE VARY WIDELY BASED ON HOW PROACTIVE ENFORCEMENT IS FROM $0 IN SOME CITIES TO 15 AT ORANGE COUNTY CHARGES ANNUALLY US $192.
INITIALLY WEST USES A FREE REGISTRATION ONLY MODEL BY LAW.
OUR C MUST ONE YEAR PROGRAM WHERE THE FOR ALL 68 EXISTING RETAILERS, IMMEDIATE REGISTRATION WHILE ALLOWING US AFTER RETURN TO THE DATE, DRAFT PROPOSAL SUPPORT ENFORCEMENT DURING THE ONE YEAR FEE WAIVER PERIOD.
COMPETITIVE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE, WHICH REQUIRE AWARDED THESE COVER DEDICATED CODE IN STAFFING FOR PROACTIVE INSPECTIONS ACROSS ALL 68 RETAILERS.
POLICE OVERTIME FOR OPERATIONS STAFF TRAINING AND OUTREACH MATERIALS RESTRICTIONS.
OVER 120 CALIFORNIA CITIES USE DENSITY RESTRICTIONS TO REDUCE YOUTH EXPOSURE TO TOBACCO, INCLUDING NEIGHBORS LIKE ANAHEIM AND PARK.
STRATEGIES RANGE FROM DISTANCE BUFFERS.
A TWO-PRONGED APPROACH FOR LA.
FIRST A THOUSAND FOOT BUFFER PROHIBITING NEW TOBACCO RETAILERS FROM OPENING NEAR SCHOOLS, PARKS, LIBRARIES, OR OTHER TOBACCO SHOP BUSINESSES WOULD BE IN AS LONG AS THEY MAINTAIN THEIR LICENSE.
HARD CAP CURRENT TO ITS CURRENT TOTAL OF APPROXIMATELY 60 IMPACT RESEARCH, TOBACCO DENSITY TO CRIME RATES.
OUR DEPARTMENT HAS NOT SEEN CALLS SERVICE AT LOCAL PROPOSED PROGRAM DESIGNED WAY, ESTABLISHING STANDARDS, PROACTIVE INSPECTIONS TO PREVENT PROBLEMS BEFORE THEY START NITRO OXIDE FOR RECREATIONAL USE.
NITROUS OXIDE COMMONLY KNOWN AS OSA SUBSTANCES THAT HAVE RECENTLY PROMPTED REGULATORY ACTION IN SEVERAL CALIFORNIA
[00:20:01]
CITIES DUE TO SIGNIFICANT PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY CONCERNS, OXIDE HAS SIGNIFICANT MEDICAL USES IN IN SURGERY AND DENTISTRY.EUPHORIC EFFECTS WHEN HAVE LED TO WIDESPREAD RECREATIONAL ABUSE WHILE THE SALE OF NI OXIDE FOR RECREATIONAL USE IS ALREADY ILLEGAL UNDER CALIFORNIA PENAL CODE, THIS LAW IS DIFFICULT TO ENFORCE LOCALLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES PROOF OF THE KNOWLEDGE OR INTENT.
A TROPICAL PLANT NATIVE TO SOUTHEAST ASIA CONTAINS ALKALOIDS THAT BIND TO OPIOID RECEPTORS IN THE BRAIN AND CAN PRODUCE EFFECTS RANGING FROM ALERTNESS, SEDATION.
IT REMAINS LEGALLY AND REGULATED AT THE STATE LEVEL IN CALIFORNIA IN THE PROLIFERATION POTENT POSE.
A SIGNIFICANT THREAT NEITHER IN ORDINANCE AT SO'S WILL TOMORROW SIMPLY ASKING IF COUNSEL WOULD LIKE US STUDY OXIDE FURTHER RETURN A FUTURE DATE WITH DETAILED RECOMMENDATIONS PRESENTATION MAY THE ORIGINAL OPTION WAS AND THE SECOND IS PROGRAM MUCH.
THIS IS A LOT OF STUFF WE HAVEN FOR THAT.
UM, I DO HAVE A FEW QUESTIONS.
UM, OR, OR CLARIFI AS FAR AS FUNDING, IF WERE TO BECOME GRANT THAT THAT INCLUDE CORRECTING, UM, AND THE, THIS OTHER YOU HERE'S YOU'VE OWNED SMOKE SHOPPER, GRANDFATHER, GRANDFATHER, THE SELL BUSINESS SOMETHING OR ANOTHER.
WHAT WAS THE 20 YEARS VERSUS VERSUS ONE YEAR? UM, I THINK THE 10 YEAR PERIOD WAS JUST TO UM, ALLOW ANY WOULD DESCRIPTION CONFUSED, UM, THE TIME PERIOD.
WELL YOU REAL QUICK SAY SOMETHING FIRST BECAUSE INVESTIGATOR FIVE YEARS, THAT'S KIND WHERE THAT MORE INSIGHT.
BUT GOING WITH THE ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS WERE WHAT DO WE HAVE FOR
[00:25:05]
NOT HAVE LICENSE, LICENSE INFORMATION.SO IT PUT SMOKE SHOP HERE FOR TO THAT INFORMATION LICENSING PROGRAM SO THAT WE CAN THE CITY.
HOW MANY PEOPLE IS SO IMPORTANT.
GOING BACK TO WHERE WE CAME AND A LITTLE BIT BEHIND WHAT I COUNCIL MEMBER WHEN WE LOOKED, WHEN THAT KIND OF BOOM HAPPENED, A LOT OF IT WAS TIMEFRAME.
SO WE THOUGHT, YOU KNOW, REALLY THAT'S NOT WHO WE'RE LOOKING AT FOR MUCH LONGER THAN WHEN BASICALLY ORDINANCE WOULD'VE BEEN SOME OTHER RETAIL SHOP.
SMOKE SHOP, LIKE A STORE, RETAIL STORE FOR ABOUT FIVE YEARS AND BECAME A STOP AFTERWARDS.
SHOP FOR LET YEARS FOR A TOTAL WE DON'T HAVE.
IS THERE OTHER WAYS WE CAN DETERMINE, WE CAN LOOK BACK ON THE BIGGEST INDICATOR IS THE NAME OF THE BUSINESS.
USUALLY IF THEY SELL TOBACCO NEED TO VERIFY.
HONESTLY THAT INFORMATION WAS REALLY CHALLENGING FOR US TO GET FROM THE STATE.
SO DOING SOMETHING WOULD BE MORE ADVANTAGEOUS.
QUESTION STANDING EXPLAIN 10 YEARS IN THE 10 DETAILED AS FAR LICENSE THERE.
UM, IT WOULD REALLY DEPEND ON HOW BUSINESS GETS A LITTLE MORE INTO THE DETAILS.
[00:30:03]
BUSINESS, NOT NOT OWNER SELLING FROM SELLING TO A QUALIFIED BUYER MAKES MY STORE COMPLETELY UN AND ITS VALUE.FURTHERMORE, ON CURRENTLY MY BUSINESS TO ANC FOR A COOPERATION FOR TAX PURPOSES IN, IN THE FUTURE, WILL THE CITY LICENSE ALLOW ME TO UPDATE MY LICENSE OR WILL BE AS A APPLICATION ITS ABILITY.
PLEASE ENSURE SO WE CAN UPDATE OUR BUSINESS SECTOR, SELL OUR STORES IN THE FUTURE.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND PROTECTING LOCAL.
WOULD IT BE APPROPRIATE FOR ME THIS TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION? THANK YOU.
AND BEFORE WE GET MAYOR THE RECORD ALSO TO MENTION HAS BEEN PROVIDED WITH CLERK OFFICE TODAY AND WE DO HAVE SIX START YOUR PUBLIC.
TAKE UP TOO MUCH OF THIS SUM WANTED TO ASKI ADEQUATELY.
THEY WANT DON'T HAVE TO THINK PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY LONG FOR OVER YEARS FOR NEAR
[00:36:02]
FREE TESTED THAT IS GREATER CONSIDERED CONCENTRATING, PRODUCING, RECOGNIZED.SO WASN'T TRYING TO CAN YOU SPEAK UP JUST A LITTLE LOUDER.
WE'RE HAVING A HARD TIME HEARING
[00:40:19]
AT NIGHT.ALLOW ME TO GO TO AND JUST LIVE LIFE IF YOU DON'T HAVE ACCIDENT ON HERE TO THESE PEOPLE AND I SOME WILL OTHER THANK SO
[00:47:39]
BOT I'M HERE TODAY.[00:50:17]
YOU GUYS 8 0 8 MAYOR TAKING THE SAME BECAUSE FOR TIME, NO.SO QUESTION ARE ABLE IF CORRECTLY, SUCCESSFULLY
[00:55:12]
FOR HIS OWNERSHIP.SO CURRENTLY AS WRITTEN, UM, THEY AGAINST INCLUDE SECTION 5.6060 WHICH SAYS STATES THAT A LICENSE IS NONTRANSFERABLE.
SO A LICENSE ISSUED SHALL NOT BE TRANSFERRED TO ANY OTHER PERSON, PROPRIETOR OR LOCATION OTHER THAN FOR WHICH THE LICENSE WAS ISSUED.
STATES IN 25% OR MORE OF THE OWNERSHIP INTEREST AND THE TOBACCO BUSINESS SHALL A TRANSFER THIS SECTION WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO DO THAT UNDERSTANDING.
WE WOULD, WE WOULD REVIEW IT IN ACCORDANCE WE WOULD NEED TO KNOW THE INDIVIDUAL ITSELF.
10 LOVE I TIME WHAT I DON'T LIKE.
I THINK THAT REPRESENTS A BUREAUCRATIC OVERLAY NEED.
REALLY IMPORTANT FOLKS DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO DO THAT.
[01:00:07]
VIRTUALLY S SPEAKER DISCUSS WHERE WE'RE NOW AS A, I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING ANOTHER, ANOTHER DESCRIPTION I WANNA LOOK AT HERE IS WE'RE SQUARE BUT ALSO LOOKING AT COMING OUT AND GONNA SCHOOL OR COMING OUTTA SCHOOL THAT WE'RE COMMENT AS WELL.THE OTHER PART, WHATEVER WE DO.
[01:05:17]
THIRD PART, I DID A LITTLE BIT OF RESEARCH AND I WAS READY.THE REALITY IS THAT'S WHAT A LOT OF USE WE KNOW LAW ENFORCE HEAVILY ON THAT BUSINESS SUPPORT.
THEIR REASON FOR THAT IS FOR THOSE REGULATIONS ORDINANCE WE WON'T, I DON'T LIMIT RECALL ON BETWEEN THOSE THAT
[01:10:12]
