Commissioners Bauer, Herman, Riley, Wills. Opposed: None. Absent:
Commissioners Isenberg, Terres. Motion carried.
ELECTION OF OFFICERS It was the consensus of the commissioners to table this item until the
February meeting.
DISCUSS 2020 CENSUS Mayor Kathi Hemken addressed the commissioners. She reported that
representatives from the census bureau had approached the city council
and stated that they were seeking a complete count committee for the
upcoming census. Mayor Hemken expressed concern that the state of
Minnesota may have been "undercounted" in the past and encouraged
participation in the 2020 census.
Mayor Hemken explained that the census, which had been taken since
1800, was an important component used to determine federal funding
allocations. She stated that this amounted to a distribution of
approximately $675 billion to states each year for public services and
facilities. She noted that census data was used to help businesses decide
where to locate, and cited the location of the New Hope Hy -Vee as an
example. She added that census data was also used to determine the
number of districts within the state.

Mayor Hemken explained that residents would receive a postcard -in
mid-March, instructing them to register for the census online. Those who
did not respond would receive up to two more mailings. She added that
the final step would be an in-person visit from a census worker, offering
their assistance in completing the form.
Mayor Hemken encouraged the commissioners to talk to their neighbors,
as well as others in their community, regarding participation in the
census. She gave examples of reasons that some may not want to
participate in the census, including concerns over immigration status or
fear of eviction from housing, and commented that those were
unfounded concerns.
Mayor Hemken stated that the largest underreported group tended to be
children ages zero to four, and stressed the importance of counting
everyone in the household. She explained that roughly 95% of the
population would receive the mailing, which would be addressed to the
resident, rather than a generic "occupant". She also mentioned that the
census would include homeless people, who would be counted by census
workers.
Mayor Hemken explained that only the actual census count would be
made available to the public, while the data itself could not be released
for 72 years. She stated that questions on the census would include the
names, ages and sex of the occupants in the household. She added that
the census did not ask for immigration status, social security number,
bank account or credit card information, or political party affiliation. She
encouraged the commissioners to be wary of fraud.
Commissioner Wills wondered whether it would be feasible for the city
to raise awareness of the census through Nextdoor.com.
Mayor Hemken felt it was important to limit staff involvement, but
thought that communication via Nextdoor.com and the city's reader
boards would be a good idea.
Lastly, Mayor Hemken informed the commissioners that there was a
shortage of census workers. Anyone interested in working for the census
should go to 2020census.gov/jobs.
The commissioners thanked Mayor Hemken for her presentation.
DISCUSS 2020 AGENDA Ms. Rader mentioned that the new Tobacco 21 law would be discussed at
TOPICS the February meeting.
Mayor Hemken commented that the federal government had not yet
voted on this new law. She reported that neighboring communities had
voiced their support for this legislation and encouraged the city of New
Hope to support it as well.

Ms. Rader reminded the commissioners that the city's parks have been
tobacco -free for many years, and commented that the city had also been
encouraged to disallow vaping products in the parks as well.
The commissioners requested updates on Nextdoor.com and social media
at the March meeting.
Ms. Rader mentioned that the city had recently purchased a drone and
noted that Keith Biese, Communications Coordinator, was the primary
operator. She thought that he might be able to provide a brief update on
its usage at the March meeting, as well.
IDEAS TO BRING Mayor Hemken mentioned that an acquaintance had attended an indoor
ATTENTION TO NEW HOPE farmer's market in Golden Valley, and wondered whether there would be
any interest in an indoor market in New Hope.
UPDATE ON POOL AND Ms. Rader reported that interior work to the bathhouse and mechanical
PARK PROJECT buildings was underway, along with installation of the brick facing on
the mechanical building. She added that Xcel Energy had been on site,
preparing for underground drilling circuits, which would eventually
connect to the transformers.
Commissioner Wills thought that heated sidewalks had been installed at
the entrances. He wondered if they were functional, as the city hall
entrance was a bit icy.
Ms. Rader replied that both the city hall and police entrances had heated
sidewalks, and stated that she would look into whether or not they were
functioning properly.
Ms. Rader informed the commissioners that the city had hired a new
Recreation Facilities Supervisor who would oversee pool operations. She
added that this position would also assist with Ice Arena operations
during the winter months.
BEGIN PARK PLAYGROUND Ms. Rader reported that the city council had directed the city engineer to
PROJECT UPDATE prepare plans and specifications. She reminded the commissioners that a
neighborhood survey had been mailed in November. She stated that a
few people had expressed interest in serving on the committee, and
added that meetings were planned for February and March. She
estimated that staff would seek council approval for the project at the end
of March and would seek bids in early April.
OTHER BUSINESS Commissioner Herman wondered whether any submissions had been
received for the snowman contest.
Ms. Rader replied that staff had received two submissions, although one
was not eligible because it did not meet the residency requirement.

Agenda Title
Discuss Potential Changes to Tobacco Regulations
Requested Action
At the December, 2019 City Council work session, Council requested that the Citizen Advisory Commission
be presented the options for tobacco use prevention, and then give their input on the matter. Staff requests
to discuss the results of this study and is requesting direction from the CAC on the recommendations it
would like to give to City Council.
Policy/Past Practice
It is the past practice of the city to provide regulations to govern general and various activities and
situations which actually or may occur or exist in the city, and which will or may affect the general welfare
and safety of residents of the city; with the intention of promoting and protecting the health, safety and
welfare of the citizens of the city.
Background
In December, 2019, the federal government raised the legal sales age of tobacco products from 18 years old to
21 years old; this includes electronic delivery devices such as vape pens. Prior to the federal legislation, 54
Minnesota cities and counties had raised the minimum age for tobacco sales from 18 years of age to 21 years,
commonly known as Tobacco 21. Federal legislation was also passed that bans flavored cartridge -based e -
cigarettes from being sold beginning February 6, 2020 (this does not include tobacco or menthol flavors). This
does not apply to tank based systems which are typically only sold at the specialty tobacco and vape stores.
In 2017, Plymouth City Council raised the minimum age for tobacco sales from 18 years of age to 21. In
December, 2017, Robbinsdale City Council raised the price of single cigars to $2.60 and restricted flavored
tobacco products to adult only tobacco stores (excluding menthol, mint and wintergreen). Then in March,
2019, Robbinsdale City Council voted to: raise the age of sales of nicotine and tobacco products to 21 and
required all vaping and electronic delivery devices to be restricted to adult tobacco stores only. Later in
November of the same year Robbinsdale City Council also dropped the sale of all tobacco products at their
municipal liquor store. In October, 2019, Golden Valley City Council passed some of the strictest tobacco
regulations passed by a municipality in the state yet: the legal age of nicotine and tobacco sales was raised to
21, all flavored tobacco and e -cigarettes (non -tobacco flavored) were banned, prohibition of all sales at
pharmacies, prohibition of stores giving out samples, the raising of the minimum price of cigars to $3, all
vaping and liquid nicotine products must have child -proof packaging, increased penalty fines and
suspensions, and ordered that more compliance checks be conducted by the city which will be funded by an
increase in tobacco license cost. Additionally, a cap was put on the number of tobacco licenses that will be
issued from 14 down to 8, which will be met through attrition and the ban on pharmacy tobacco sales which
will eliminate two licenses in 2020.

Request for Action, Page 2
The majority of the cities in the area surrounding New Hope that have passed tobacco use prevention related
ordinances have worked in conjunction with Hennepin County Public Health and the Mitchell Hamline Public
Health Law Center, who provide free assistance to cities looking at the possibilities of changing their
ordinances. Staff spoke to both of these agencies in regards to a possible change in New Hope tobacco
ordinance. Hennepin County Public Health provided information in regards to the options cities have to
strengthen their ordinances to make it more difficult for people below the age of 21 to access nicotine and
tobacco products. Hennepin County Public Health and the Mitchell Hamline Public Health Law Center both
also give advice on some of the best practices for enacting and enforcing these changes, and some of the policy
changes that might need to accompany them. Mitchell Hamline also performed a free ordinance assessment
of the city's current tobacco ordinance, and how it compares to current state and federal regulations. This
information was forwarded on to the City Attorney.
The city issued 21 tobacco licenses in 2019. Of those, 14 licenses are in convenience/retail, one is for a
pharmacy, two are for tobacco/nicotine specialty shops and four belong to liquor stores. In 2016 Hennepin
County Public Health conducted observational visits of New Hope's licensed tobacco retailers. The following
are some of the findings from that report:
• 48% of tobacco retailers are within 500 feet of a school or park. The rest of Hennepin County by
comparison has 25% of tobacco retailers within 500 feet of a school or park.
• Four of the stores visited have products located within one foot of items that are of interest to children
(i.e. toys, candy, gum) and five stores had product ads within three feet of the floor, eye level to a
youngster.
15 retailers sold single cigars below the minimum price as in some surrounding cities ($2.60). The
cheapest sold was $0.89. This is important because teens are sensitive to price and according to the
Campaign for Tobacco -Free Kids, every 10% increase in in the price of tobacco products reduces the
number of youths who smoke by 6-7%.
• 19 stores sold flavored non -menthol and menthol cigarettes, while five stores have exterior
advertisements of menthol cigarettes, and seven of the retailers sell menthol cigarettes at a sale or
special price. In Minnesota, one in three Minnesota high school smokers use menthol. According to
the 2016 Minnesota Student Survey (MSS), in the Robbinsdale School District, 47% of 11th graders who
reported using tobacco within the past 30 days stated they use menthol tobacco products (22% of 9th
graders).
• 17 stores sell e -cigarette products, with the cheapest disposable e -cigarette ranging from $5.59-$15.99.
This is significant because in Minnesota nearly one in five teens now use e -cigarettes. Use among 9th
to 11th graders is now more than double that of cigarette use. Since 2016, vaping in the state of
Minnesota has increased in use amongst 8th graders by 95%, 9th graders by 75% and 11th graders by
54%.
According to research conducted by Minnesota Department of Health, one out of every seven deaths in
Hennepin County is tobacco related. The cost to the county is approximately $585.8 million a year in excess
health care costs, which equates to a tax burden of $753 per household annually. One of the major reasons for
considering tobacco prevention regulations, including raising the minimum age for tobacco sales to 21 years
old, is that the vast majority of smokers start before the age of 21, and almost no smokers begin smoking after
the age of 25. Increasing the sales age to 21 is expected to reduce use by 15-17 year olds by 25%, especially
since most 15-17 year olds who use tobacco get it from older students that can legally purchase it.
Request for Action, Page 3
Staff has researched the different regulations other cities in the surrounding area have enacted concerning
tobacco prevention policies. The following are options that staff have found that could be taken regarding
potentially changing New Hope's tobacco ordinance:
1. Make some or all of the advised changes given by the Mitchell Hamline Public Health Law Center to
New Hope's current tobacco ordinance so that it is more in line with state and federal standards.
2. Raise the minimum age of tobacco and nicotine product sales to 21 years of age to reflect the new
federal regulations.
3. Prohibit the sale of all flavored tobacco products in the city.
4. Prohibit the sale of all flavored tobacco products except for menthol, mint or wintergreen products in
the city.
5. Ban all flavored tobacco and nicotine products from being sold in any other place except for adult only
tobacco stores. Council could once again, make an exemption to menthol, wintergreen and mint in this
instance too.
6. Raise the age limit of those legally allowed to sell tobacco products to 18.
7. Create a minimum price for single and small pack cigars and cigarillos.
8. Set a policy regarding set distances between retailers, and between retailers and youth -oriented
facilities, like schools.
9. Restrict pharmacies, or any retail establishment with an on-site pharmacy, from being eligible for
renewal of tobacco licenses.
10. Prohibit price discounting strategies by tobacco sales license holders.
11. Set a cap on the number of tobacco licenses the city issues. This could be smaller than the current
number and licenses would be removed through attrition.
12. Promote higher enforcement measures on retailers and adjust license fees to reflect any additional
costs incurred by the city for doing so.
13. Take no action beyond updating the City Code to reflect the new federal regulations raising the age of
product sales to 21 and also banning the sale of all flavored cartridge -based e-cigarettes(other than
tobacco or menthol flavors).
An important note, currently the City of New Hope's licensing code penalizes persons under the age of 18
who attempt to purchase tobacco products. Possession, use and purchase (PUP) laws may be unlikely to
reduce youth tobacco and nicotine use significantly according the Mitchell Hamline Public Health Law Center.
Many public health groups, including Hennepin County Public Health, suggest focusing more on the retailer.
PUP laws may undermine other conventional avenues of youth discipline, divert attention from more
effective tobacco control strategies and relieve the tobacco industry of responsibility for its marketing
practices. Some communities are concerned that PUP provisions may be enforced inconsistently with respect
to youth from certain racial and ethnic groups, resulting their introduction into the criminal justice system.
Therefore, many public health groups suggest focusing instead on the retailer, especially since this is a
licensing code. Since the legal age of sales has been raised to 21, there is an even stronger case for these
arguments, as 18-20 year olds who were previously able to legally purchase tobacco products and are now
likely addicted, may continue to attempt to purchase these products in the retail setting.
Request for Action, Page 4
Recommendation
The City Council has requested that the Citizen Advisory Commission discuss this matter, take input from
the residents and tobacco license holders, and determine what recommendations they would like to give to
the City Council. Staff will then present the recommendations of the CAC to the City Council at the February
18, 2020 Council work session.

RE: New Hope Tobacco Retail Ordinance Analysis
Dear Brandon:
Thank you for reaching out to the Public Health Law Center for an assessment of the New
Hope licensing code. First, I must note that the Public Health Law Center does not lobby, nor
does it provide legal representation or advice. Based on our experiences with retail licensing
and sales restrictions, we are able to provide our observations and other educational
information for your own evaluation of these issues. This information is for educational
purposes only; we do not request that a policymaker take any specific action in regard to our
comments, nor should our comments be considered a replacement for legal advice. If you or
the City of New Hope require a legal opinion, we encourage you to consult with local legal
counsel.
I have reviewed New Hope's current tobacco code language (Tobacco Ordinance — Section
8-7). Below, please find a summary of my key findings from New Hope's tobacco licensing
regulations, along with a list of amendments the City may be interested in making in the
interest of aligning with federal and state law, protecting the public's health, protecting youth
and young adults, and reducing health disparities. The regulations were compared to licensing
laws from other jurisdictions in Minnesota and across the U.S.
The City of New Hope's Retail Tobacco Regulations
Minnesota municipalities have the authori1y to license retailers and regulate the sale of tobacco
and related devices and products within their jurisdictions. Regulating tobacco retailers
through licensing is considered a best practice. While New Hope's tobacco licensing code is
quite stark compared to other licensing municipalities, it contains some good commercial
tobacco control practices. They include:
The sale of commercial tobacco products is prohibited by means of vending machines
and unattended self-service methods, with the exception of machines and self-service
displays in adult -only tobacco retail shops.
License holders are responsible for the conduct of their employees on the licensed
premises; employee violations are considered acts of the licensee for penalty purposes.
P: 651.290.7506 F: 651.290.7515 875 Summit Avenue, St. Paul.
W: www.PublicHealthLawCenter.org Minnesota 55105
Despite these strengths, there is much room for improvement. There are elements that could
be clarified, strengthened, or added, including the following:
Clari & Readability
o For clarity, the City might consider including a "Findings and Purpose Section," which supplies
the evidentiary basis for the proposed commercial tobacco control policies and demonstrates the
City's reasoning for adopting specific provisions. This Purpose and Findings section reflects
language appropriate for all of the provisions included in the Ordinance. The Public Health Law
Center can provide support for communities to determine which Findings and Purpose
statements and references should be retained in a final ordinance, depending on which provisions
the City chooses to adopt.
o The City might also consider including a "Definitions" section (alphabetically ordered), with
definitions for the key terms employed in the Ordinance. The City does not define any terms in
its currently published Ordinance. A strong definitions section helps make all terms used
throughout the Ordinance clear and unambiguous. This increases the likelihood of compliance,
helps with enforcement, and reduces the likelihood of successful litigation if any portion of the
Ordinance were challenged.
In addition to a comprehensive definition for "tobacco" which takes into account new and
emerging tobacco products, the City could consider including, at a minimum, the following
definitions: 1) "Electronic delivery devices"; 2) "Nicotine or lobelia delivery products;" 3)
"Licensed Product" — which is a catch-all term that encompasses all the products covered by the
licensing regulation, and can be employed throughout the Ordinance in lieu of enumerating all the
products; 4) "Child -Resistant Packaging"; 5) "Loosies;" 6) "Tobacco -related device'; 7)"Vending
machine"; 8) "Self-service display."
Additional terms may also be defined depending on which tobacco control provisions the City
choses to adopt. For example, the City would need a definition for "Flavored Product" if it
decides to adopt a sales prohibition or restriction on flavored tobacco products. Note that state
law, as discussed below, requires local licensure for "electronic delivery devices" and "nicotine or
lobelia delivery products." These products are not explicitly covered by the City's current
Ordinance. They could be explicitly covered and included in any definitions section.
The Public Health Law Center can assist in supplying sample language for all the terms that
should be included in the definitions section.
Align with minimum standards in state and federal law
o Minnesota law requires a local license to sell:
■ "Electronic delivery devices" (EDD)— a broad term used to describe what are more
commonly referred to as "e -cigarettes" (e.g., Juul). These products (whether they
contain nicotine or not) are subject to the same sales regulations that apply to more
P: 651.290.7506 F: 651.290.7515 875 Summit Avenue. St Paul,
W: www.PublicHealthLawCenter.org Minnesota 55105
conventional tobacco products and tobacco -related devices, like cigarettes, cigars, and
pipes. The regulation of these products are even more important as they are increasingly
popular among youth. The current City code does not require a license to sell EDDs.
Nicotine or lobelia delivery products"— a broad "catch-all" term that covers other "non -
tobacco" or "non -electronic delivery device" products that contain nicotine and/or
lobelia. These products are also subject to the same licensing and sales regulations and
really should be specifically addressed in the licensing Ordinance. The current
Ordinance does not require a license for nicotine or lobelia delivery products.
o State and federal law requires that any liquids sold for use in an electronic delivery device must
be in child -resistant packaging. This requirement—as well as guidance to retailers on how they
will demonstrate compliance—could be incorporated as well. A definition of child -resistant
packaging would also be needed if this is adopted, such as:
Child -resistant packaging. Packaging that meets the definition set forth in CcLde of Federal
Regulations title 16. section 1700.1502), as in effect on January 1, 2015, and was tested in
accordance with the method described in Code of Federal Regulations. title 16section 1700.20,
as in effect on January 1, 2015.
o State and federal law prohibits the distribution of most free samples. Local jurisdictions can
prohibit the distribution of all free or nominally priced samples. For more information on the
policy options for addressing tobacco product sampling, see our publication: " Policy Qn� trans to
,address Tobacco Product Sarnl-)les and Sar yling."
o State law prohibits licensure of moveable places of business, like kiosks. New Hope's current
Ordinance does not include that as a disqualification of licensure.
Effective Administration and Enforcement
o The City may consider adding provisions detailing the application, approval/denial, and appeal
process for licensure. Also, the City does not dictate how long the license term is. As it
currently stands, licensure could be indefinite after just one application and payment of the
licensing fee. This is an important piece of consideration. Typically, local licenses in Minnesota
are valid for one year from the date of issuance. This ensures that local governments are aware
of all tobacco retailers in their jurisdiction, receive revenue through licensing fees to administer
and enforce the local licensing regulations, and have an opportunity to connect with retailers
about new regulations.
o Minnesota law requires at least one youth access compliance check per retailer each year. The
City of New Hope sets a minimum number of compliance checks each year based on state
requirements (one), but allows for more. A city can require multiple checks, as well as re -
inspections after violations. Performing additional compliance checks per year can help promote
better compliance with youth access laws. Costs for additional -mandated compliance checks can
be incorporated into the license fee, with the costs absorbed by the license holders themselves.
Our publication, Compliance and Local Enforcement Programs, supplies additional information
on this issue.
P: 651.290.7506 R 651.290.7515 875 Summit Avenue, St. Paul.
W: www.PublicHealthLawCenter.org Minnesota 55105
o Some municipalities require retailers to train their employees on youth access laws and other
licensing requirements. The City of New Hope could require training as a preventive measure
for all licensees and/or as a consequence for underage and other illegal sales and violations.
o Increase the minimum retail clerk age to the minimum legal sales age (18). For more
information on this policy option, see our publication: M§ing the Age to Sell Tobacco;
Establishing a Minirnutn Clerk Age."
o Compliance and enforcement of the ordinance could be clarified and strengthened if
language was included to set requirements for age verification and for signage. The
ordinance may be amended with language such as:
■ Age verification. Licensees must verify by means of government -issued photographic
identification that the purchaser is at least 21 years of age. Verification is not required
for a person over the age of 30. That the person appeared to be 30 years of age or older
does not constitute a defense to a violation of this subsection.
■ Signage. Notice of the legal sales age and age verification requirement must be posted
at each location where licensed products are offered for sale. The required signage,
which will be provided to the licensee by the city, must be posted in a manner that is
clearly visible to anvone who is or is considering making a purchase.
Fees & Penalties
o The current license fee for the City of New Hope, based on the city's fee schedule is $250.00.
Fees should be periodically reviewed to ensure they cover all administration, implementation
and enforcement costs, including compliance checks. Fees that do not reflect actual costs
should be adjusted. For more information on licensing fees, our publication, Retail License
Fees, includes information about retail licensing fees and a license fee checklist.
o The City of New Hope's licensing code penalizes persons under age 18 who attempt to
purchase tobacco products. Possession, use and purchase (PUP) laws may be unlikely to
reduce youth smoking significantly. They may undermine other conventional avenues of youth
discipline, divert attention from more effective tobacco control strategies, and relieve the
tobacco industry of responsibility for its marketing practices. Some communities are
concerned that PUP provisions may be enforced inconsistently with respect to youth from
certain racial and ethnic groups, resulting in their introduction into the criminal justice system.
Nicotine is more addictive than heroin and other drugs. Many public health groups suggest
focusing instead on the retailer, especially since this is a licensing code.
Should the City of New Hope seek to increase its legal sales age to 21 (i.e. a "T21" policy),
there is an even stronger case for these arguments, as 18 -20 -year-olds who were previously
able to legally purchase tobacco products and are likely now addicted may continue to attempt
to purchase these products in the retail setting.
P: 651.290.7506 R 651.290.7515 875 Summit Avenue, St. Paul,
W. www.PublicHealthLawCenter.org Minnesota 55105
For these reasons, the City of New Hope may consider removing this provision/language
which establishes penalties for underage violators of the tobacco licensing ordinances.
Removal of this provision puts responsibility on the licensee, seller, or provider of the covered
products.
Alternatively, the City could assess only alternative penalties (e.g., education, community
service) for underage PUP, although still not a best public health practice.
o The Ordinance allows for misdemeanor prosecution for all violations of the law. For the
reasons outlined above regarding PUP provisions, the City may consider limiting the use of
criminal penalties, particularly for underage persons.
o The current ordinance establishes an incremental administrative fine and suspension period
structure for violations by retailers and employees. The City could strengthen this section by
raising the penalty amount and extending the suspension period. Strong consequences, like
high administrative fines against violating licensees and shorter timeframes for violations can
help promote compliance. Establishing longer suspension terms, providing suspensions for
first or second violations, and incorporating mandatory licensing revocations into the penalty
structure can help encourage voluntary compliance and provide stronger tools to address
repeat violators. While the current ordinance has a flexible administrative civil penalties
structure, it could be further strengthened to ensure sufficient monetary penalties against
violating retailers, especially repeat offenders. Our publication on Violations and Penalties
discusses some of these policy issues.
Additional Licensing Options
Through licensing regulations, Minnesota cities and counties also have the opportunity to:
o Raise the minimum legal sales age to 21. For more information on T21 policy, our Point -of -Sale
Policy Toolkit includes a Tobacco 21 Ordinance Check -list, which addresses the various
considerations that should be taken into account when drafting a T21 ordinance.
o Restrict or prohibit the sale of flavored tobacco products (this includes the sale of the menthol
flavor). For more information on this policy, see our publication: "Regulating Flavored Tobacco
Products." For some examples of jurisdictions that have adopted this policy, including Minnesota
jurisdictions such as Mendota Heights, Duluth, Lilydale and Arden Hills, see our publication: U.S.
Sales Restrictions on Flavored Tobacco Products."
o Prohibit the sales of imitation tobacco products. Imitation tobacco products, such as candy
cigarettes and smokeless chew, may lead youth to use commercial tobacco by desensitizing them
to the dangers of tobacco and by advancing the idea that commercial tobacco use is socially
acceptable.
o Reduce or restrict the number, location, density, and types of retailers. A high prevalence of
tobacco retailers is associated with increased use of tobacco; and a higher concentration of
tobacco retailers in low income neighborhoods or around schools has negative consequences for

public health. Retail outlets are also a source of exposure to tobacco marketing, which is designed
to encourage initiation and use. These changes may be accomplished through the licensing code
or the zoning code. For more information on this policy option, see our publications:
"Rellating the Lacanian Density, and T1,Me of Tobacco Retailers;" and "Lavation, Location.
Location: Tobacco & E-cig Point of Sale.."
o Increase product costs through non -tax approaches (such as prohibiting coupon redemption or
other price discounting). Our publication, "Coupons and Other Price Discounting Poticy
Options ' discusses this policy option.
o Prohibit the sale of cigars unless packaged with a minimum number of cigars and/or sold for a
minimum price (as a package and individually). Federal law prohibits the sale of individual
cigarettes, but the City may also ban the sale of "loosies" as we define them— single or
individually packaged cigars or any other licensed product that has been removed from its
intended retail packaging (e.g., Juul pods) and offered for sale. Local governments can prohibit
the sale of these products unless the price of the cigar is at or above a certain price. Pricing is an
incredibly effective tool for tobacco use reduction and has been shown to reduce youth tobacco
use initiation. The line between cheap products that appeal to children and the more expensive
cigars that are intended for this exception is an important consideration. For more information
on this policy, see our publication: "Setting a Minimum Price and Packa e Size for Cigars."
o Prohibit pharmacies from selling tobacco products. As pharmacies are considered health
supporting institutions, it is inconsistent for them to sell tobacco products. Our publication,
"Prohibiting Pharmacy Sales of Tobacco Products," discusses this policy option.
o Prohibit the indoor use of licensed products for the purpose of sampling to protect patrons and
employees from the health harms of secondhand and thirdhand smoke exposure. See our
publication 'Tolicy Options to Address Tobacco Product Samples and Sampling!" for more
information on product sampling and the policy considerations.
o Prohibit the transfer of a license to another person or location.
For more information on the procedural considerations involved when adopting or amending a
retail tobacco licensing ordinance, see our publication: Retail Tobacco Licensing Ordinances:
Procedural Requirements."
The City of New Hope may choose to adopt all or any of these policies, which the PHLC considers
to be the best practice for public health.
The City of New Hope may also consider:
o Adding, as discussed, a "Purpose and Intent" section, and expanding it if any new policy is
adopted to support that policy.
o Adding a definitions section and updating it to support any new policies adopted.
P: 651.290.7506 F: 651.290.7515 875 Summit Avenue, St. Paul.
W: www.PublicHealthLawCenter.org Minnesota 55105
o Adding a severability clause. An ordinance with a severability clause protects and upholds other
components of the law if a successful legal challenge prevails against any part of the law.
I hope this is helpful. I would be happy to provide sample language for any policy change
discussed in this memo. Please let us know if we can assist you further.

Tobacco use remains the #1 cause of preventable death and disease in Minnesota:
• Tobacco kills more Minnesotans per year than alcohol, homicides, car accidents, AIDS, illegal drugs, and suicide combined.
• In 2014, one in four cancer deaths in Minnesota was from smoking.
• Each year in Minnesota, tobacco use is responsible for 6,300 deaths and over $3 billion in excess healthcare costs.

Tobacco marketing is often
directed at certain segments of the
population, particularly people of
color, people with low-income, and
youth. This contributes to higher
tobacco use in these groups.

Why Smoking and tobacco use has immediate adverse health consequences, such as nicotine addiction and
it's significant triggering asthma attacks, as well as long-term health consequences such as cancer, heart disease,
stroke, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
Tobacco use: a look at our adults and youth
Adult smoking use (Metro SHAPE2074 Adult Survey, adults aged 25 and older, Hennepin County; 2014 Minnesota Adult Tobacco Survey)
9 percent of adults, aged 25 and older, in Hennepin County's NW inner ring suburbs (which includes New Hope) are
current smokers, and 10 percent currently use any other type of tobacco product (does not include e -cigarettes).
The tobacco industry needs replacement users to be successful. Youth are the replacements for adults who quit or die
from their tobacco use. Nearly nine out of 10 smokers start by age 18. The nicotine in tobacco is highly addictive. Youth
that start using tobacco early are very likely to become lifetime users. After age 25, almost no one starts smoking.

Let's explore our tobacco retail stores.
Ads and kids
• Four stores have products located within one foot of
items that are of interest to children (e.g., toys, candy,
gum) and five stores have product ads within three
feet of the floor, eye -level to a youngster.
Why
Children are more likely to see these

products and ads, making the products

seem like normal items to buy in stores.
Cigars
• Most stores sell cigars. Fifteen retailers sell single cigars
below the minimum price in some surrounding cities
($2.60). The cheapest was $0.89, and 80% of the time,
the cheapest individual cigar is a flavored cigar.
Why Teens are especially sensitive to price.

Menthol cigarettes
• 19 stores sell non -menthol and menthol cigarettes.
• Ave stores have exterior advertisements of menthol
cigarettes and seven of the 24 tobacco retailers sell
menthol cigarettes at a sale or special price.

Solutions the City of New Hope and community can consider
Communities can create environments that reduce tobacco use, limit access and
exposure to tobacco products and ads, and support people who want to quit.
''. New Hope's licensing regulations include several good tobacco control
`-�'— practices, such as:
High penalties for violations
Compliance promotion
Here are seven ways the city can strengthen local regulations to further prevent tobacco use:
1. Align current regulations to meet minimum state and federal requirements
2. Promote effective enforcement
3. Ensure that the license fee reflects the cost of administering and enforcing the license
4. Keep the price of tobacco high
a. Control the minimum pack size and/or price on cigar products
b. Prohibit price -discounting strategies by retailers (e.g., multi -pack offers and coupons)
5. Regulate the sale of flavored tobacco products
a. Restrict sales of these products (including menthol products) to adult -only tobacco stores
6. Increase age requirements
a. Increase the legal sale age for tobacco products to 21
b. Require sales clerks who sell tobacco to be at least 18
7. Regulate the number, density, and location of tobacco retailers
a. Cap the number of tobacco licenses a city issues
b. Prohibit tobacco sales in pharmacies
c. Restrict tobacco sales near areas where youth gather (e.g., schools, parks)
