Re: Proposed Ordinance - Tobacco, Minors
Dear Mayor Tedesco and Council Members:
As instructed by the Council, the attached ordinance was prepared to penalize anyone providing a
tobacco product to a minor and also to make it a violation by a cigarette permittee if any employee
of the permittee knowingly or carelessly provides tobacco to a minor during the course of the
permittee's business.
Please review the ordinance and share it with others you believe to be interested in this matter. It
would be good to have the benefit of your critique and suggestions prior to the meeting at which the
ordinance will be considered for enactment.
Yours truly,
John R. Klaus
City Attorney
cc Chief of Police
