Beverly Hills passes tobacco retail sales ban, an ordinance believed to be first of its kind in US
The ban, which is set to begin in 2021, prohibits the sale of cigarettes, cigars, pipe tobacco, chewing tobacco and electronic cigarettes sold in gas stations, convenience stores, pharmacies and grocery stores.Cigarettes are displayed on store shelves in Beverly Hills, Calif. The Beverly Hills City Council on June 4, 2019, voted to outlaw the sale of tobacco products, a move that makes the California city the first in the nation to enact such a ban.
The 5-0 vote Tuesday followed the council last month supporting a draft ordinance, which carved out an exemption for upscale cigar lounges and hotels in the city. In fact, Beverly Hills Mayor John Mirisch said at the Tuesday meeting that Manhattan Beach is looking at adopting its own ban on the sale of tobacco products. Several beach communities in Southern California already have smoking bans in public areas.
