E-Cigarettes

E-Cigarettes

At the February 18, 2014, City Council Regular Meeting, the City Council voted to regulate the sales and public consumption of electronic cigarettes (“e-cigarettes”) in the same manner as tobacco products in the City. E-cigarettes are nicotine delivery devices that are battery-powered and simulate tobacco smoking. The City Council felt it was important to take a proactive approach on the e-cigarette issue and promote a healthier community.

The concern has been the growing popularity and use of electronic cigarettes among the youth, according to a National Youth Tobacco Survey conducted by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control. For more information on this survey, please visit the CDC website. For information regarding the Food and Drug Administration's smoking regulations for e-cigarettes, please visit the FDA website.

The City's e-cigarette ordinance went into effect on June 1, 2014.
