ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – JANUARY 22, 2019 4 <br /> <br />A discussion ensued regarding flavored tobacco products. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant discussed the difference of limiting flavored tobacco sales to a tobacco shop versus <br />a complete ban of flavored tobacco sales. He stated he supported the ban of flavored tobacco <br />sales in Arden Hills. <br /> <br />Councilmember McClung explained flavored tobacco was being marketed strictly to kids. He <br />stated there has been a ground swell of cities taking action which may lead to State action. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant questioned how other cities drafted an Ordinance to address flavored tobacco sales. <br /> <br />Ms. Ackert commented on the best practice language that had been drafted and recommended the <br />City’s Ordinance include address flavored tobacco as being candy, fruit, mint and menthol. She <br />reported she could share this language with City staff. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden stated she supported banning the sale of flavored tobacco in Arden <br />Hills. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant explained he could also support a full ban of flavored tobacco. <br /> <br />Further discussion ensued regarding the regulations neighboring communities have in place with <br />respect to flavored tobacco. <br /> <br />Councilmember Holden stated she could support no flavored tobacco being sold in Arden Hills. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant and Councilmember McClung were both in agreement. <br /> <br />Council consensus was to direct staff to move forward with drafting an Ordinance that would <br />change the tobacco sales age to 21 and to ban the sale of flavored tobacco in the City of Arden <br />Hills. <br /> <br />Mayor Grant recommended an effective date of three months after the Ordinance was approved <br />by the City Council. <br /> <br />City Clerk Hanson commented she would reach out to local tobacco vendors regarding the <br />Ordinance change. <br /> <br />C.
