10B. CONSIDERATION OF ORDINANCE NO. 1148 AMENDING TITLE 20 (ZONING)
TO PROHIBIT SHORT-TERM RENTALS THROUGHOUT THE CITY AND BED
AND BREAKFAST ESTABLISHMENTS IN RESIDENTIAL AND MIXED-USE
OVERLAY ZONES
The City of Stanton (“City”) has continuously sought to deter nuisance activities throughout the community. Since the emergence of short-term rentals, the City has received complaints about residents leasing their properties to travelers for shortterm or vacation rentals. Residents report that the rentals degrade the quality of their neighborhoods by generating excessive noise, parking problems, and trash.
Because short-term rentals are not expressly permitted in any zone under the Stanton Municipal Code (“SMC”), such uses are prohibited throughout the City. The proposed Ordinance seeks to expressly memorialize this prohibition making it clear to all members of the public. Similar to short-term rentals, bed and breakfast inns can cause noise, parking, and other nuisances in residential neighborhoods. For this reason, the proposed ordinance would also prohibit bed and breakfast inns within residential and mixed-use overlay zones. The proposed changes are intended to safeguard the quality of life in the City’s residential areas.

The public hearing was opened.

2 ANALYSIS:
The monthly cash and investment report provides a summary of the cash and investment accounts held by the City as of the end of that month. In order to manage its cash and investments, the City combines cash resources from all funds into a single pool consisting of a variety of accounts and securities. The balance in the pooled cash account includes cash and certain liquid investments that are available to meet the City’s current cash needs. Cash in excess of the City’s current cash needs is invested in interest-bearing investments with various maturities.
As of September 30, 2024, the market value of the City’s total investment portfolio was $64.9 million, of which $26.5 million (41%) was invested in the State Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) and $38.5 million (59%) was managed by Chandler. Detailed information regarding the securities contained in the City’s investment portfolio is provided in Attachment B. As of September 30, 2024, City investments consisted of the following:
The City’s investment portfolio is well-diversified with investments spread across nine different security types. Likewise, the average maturity of the City’s portfolio (except for LAIF) is approximately 3.0 years, which is within the 3.5 years target in the City’s investment policy.
FISCAL IMPACT:
All deposits and investments have been made in accordance with the City's Fiscal Year 2024/25 Investment Policy. The portfolio will allow the City to meet its expenditure requirements for the next six months. Staff remains confident that the investment portfolio is currently positioned to remain secure and sufficiently liquid. 3 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
None.

None.

of $20,000 for personal services, or for the purchase, lease, rental, or sale of personal property, materials, equipment, or supplies, shall be let by formal competitive bidding procedure, after public advertising, to the lowest and/or verifiable most qualified bidder. The Purchasing Officer/Designee shall send out all bids and notices of bids requested based on the information provided by the Department Heads and shall keep a list of the date the bids were mailed and a list of the vendors to whom the bids were mailed. The City Clerk shall receive all bids and keep a list of the time they were received. Whenever practical the bid opening shall be made in the presence of the Department Head and the City Clerk.
2. The request for bids under the Competitive Bid Procedure shall, at a minimum, be posted at City Hall and shall be posted as required by ordinance or published at least once in a newspaper of general circulation if one exists in the City and if applicable, in appropriate trade publications. The date of posting or publication shall be at least ten (10) days before the date of opening of the bids, or the final date for accepting bids. All formal bids shall be sealed and shall be publicly opened and read at the date, time, and place indicated in the published notice.

B. AMOUNTS LESS THAN $20,000 BUT IN EXCESS OR EQUAL TO $3,000:
1. All purchase orders and contracts in amount less than $20,000 but in excess or equal to $3,000 shall be let in the open market by obtaining at least three bids wherever possible. The requesting Department shall obtain three verbal or written competitive quotations whenever possible for purchases and keep a record of who was contacted and the price that was quoted. Getting more quotations is encouraged. In the event that three quotes cannot be obtained documentation of the process should indicate why less than three were obtained and should be placed on file with the quotes that were obtained. The Purchasing Officer/Designee may be requested to assist in this process.
2. Documentation requesting quotes under the Open Market Procedure may be posted at City Hall, placed in trade magazines or the newspaper, posted on the City’s official web site, mailed, faxed, or sent by electronic mail (e-mail) to prospective vendors. Adequate time should be allotted to permit a response; typically a minimum of ten calendar days before the due date but less may be acceptable if necessary. In any event the quote deadline should be noted.
Quotes may also be solicited over the phone through a verbal quote; provided that they are documented by the requesting department. Quotes under the Open Market Procedure may also be obtained from consulting current catalogues; internet sites, or advertising flyers.
3. The Requesting Department shall submit a memo, which includes the recommended vendor, with all supporting documentation to the City Manager or Designee. Supporting documentation shall include competitive price quotes obtained, names of vendors contacted, description of the items required, and certificates of insurance as applicable. The City Manager or Designee shall review the recommendation and supporting documentation and may contact additional sources for quotations. The City Manager or Designee may award the purchase to the lowest responsive and responsible vendor whose quote fulfills the intended purpose, quality, and delivery needs of the solicitation, provided that an unencumbered appropriation for that item exists. In lieu of awarding the purchase, the City Manager or Designee may reject quotes or may negotiate further to obtain terms more acceptable to the City. The City Manager or Designee may also determine that the interest of the City is best served to require the Formal Contract Procedures for purchases within this range.

4. No purchase shall be split into parts by any concerned party so as to produce artificial amounts lower than the total purchase price.
C. PURCHASES LESS THAN $ 3,000: These purchases may be obtained by using purchase orders issued by the City Administrative Services Director to obtain supplies and services which have been approved by the Department Head.
1. The employee making the purchase shall verify that he/she obtained the supplies or services in good condition.
2. Written competitive bids are not required, but the Department Head or her/his designee is encouraged to obtain competitive quotations. For purchases of less than $3,000, the authority to award a purchase contract is the Department Head's. Prudent judgment shall be used at all times.
3. Although purchases of less than three thousand dollars are exempt from many procedures required for higher cost items, every effort to utilize a local business shall be exercised.
D. LOCAL BUSINESS PREFERENCE: In evaluating competitive bids or quotes, any local vendor/bidder, having a valid City Business License and fixed business location within the incorporated City Limits, may receive a one percent (1%) preference off of their bid or quote. This preference shall be applied only when a non-local vendor/bidder has first been determined to be the lowest responsible vendor/bidder but a local vendor/bidder may equal or improve upon the bid if the preference is applied. If upon applying this preference should the local vendor/bidder equal the lowest responsible vendor/bidder, or become the lowest responsible vendor/bidder, the City may select this vendor/bidder even though the actual cost to the City would not be the lowest. In the event that a local and a non local bidder /vendor have the same bid or quote and it is the lowest responsible bid or quote the one percent (1%) preference need not be applied. In this case the local business shall be selected to receive the purchase award. The local business must still demonstrate that it is a responsible vendor/bidder before being selected for the purchase award. This shall apply to purchases under the Open Market and Formal Contract as well as professional services or consultant agreements.

The Local Business Preference may not apply and may be dispensed with when prohibited by State or Federal Statutes, or regulations requiring that a bid or quote be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder or vendor, or as otherwise exempted from local preferences. The local business preference shall not apply to purchases that are less than $5,000. However, a Department making a purchase under the $5,000 limit shall make every attempt possible to purchase through local businesses. Under no circumstances shall the Local Business Preference, granted in a single bid or quote, exceed five thousand dollars ($5,000) cap. The Local Business Preference will not apply when bids or quotes are done with other public agencies through cooperative purchases.
E. VENDORS OF GASOLINE AND DIESEL FUEL:

REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: November 12, 2024
SUBJECT: CONSIDER RESOLUTION FINDING AND DECLARING THAT AN
EMERGENCY CONDITION EXISTS ARISING FROM DAMAGE TO THE
WESTERLY END STANTON PARK PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE AND
AUTHORIZING REPAIR TO THE PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE WITHOUT
PUBLIC BIDDING
REPORT IN BRIEF:
The westerly end pedestrian bridge at Stanton Park has been damaged and unusable since June 2023. The pedestrian bridge is a major pedestrian walkway serving many of the residents of the City. City Council will consider declaring the repair an emergency and thereby exempt from public bidding requirements.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. City Council adopt Resolution No. 2024-36 finding that an emergency condition exists arising from damage to the Westerly End Stanton Park Pedestrian Bridge and authorizing emergency repair to the Westerly End Stanton Park Pedestrian Bridge without public bidding, entitled:
“A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON,
CALIFORNIA, FINDING AND DECLARING THAT AN EMERGENCY
CONDITION EXISTS ARISING FROM DAMAGE TO THE WESTERLY END
STANTON PARK PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE AND AUTHORIZING REPAIR TO THE PEDESTRIAN BRIDGE WITHOUT PUBLIC BIDDING”; and
2. Declare this project categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act, Section 15301 Class 1 subsection (d).
BACKGROUND:
In late June 2023, a vehicle collided with the Westerly End Pedestrian Bridge at Stanton Park (“the pedestrian bridge”), causing significant damage to the pedestrian bridge. Due to immediate safety concerns, the pedestrian bridge was promptly closed and secured.
However, these fixes are only temporary, and the City will need to procure additional Item: 6I

2 services immediately to make additional repairs to the pedestrian bridge. Prior to its closure, the pedestrian bridge had served as a major walkway serving many residents of the City. Additionally, the pedestrian bridge provided safe, walkable access from the residential developments to the south of Stanton Park to Stanton City Hall, Stanton Community Center, Stanton Library, and a closely located retail plaza, which is home to a grocery store and bank, all located to the north of Stanton Park.
On September 24, 2024, City Council approved the filing of a claim through the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority (CJPIA) and an appropriation of $250,000 from the Fiscal Year 2024-25 General Fund Special Projects for the repair of the Stanton Park Pedestrian Bridge.
ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:
Shortly after the pedestrian bridge was closed and secured, the City began receiving numerous calls from surrounding residents, which continue to this day. Many of these calls express concerns about safety, as residents now face a longer walking distance to access essential services such as the grocery store, Stanton Library, and Stanton Civic Center located north of Stanton Park. Additionally, the City Council has received public comment and interest at meetings from residents specifically seeking updates on the pedestrian bridge’s repair timeline. As a result, the City would like to proceed to repair the pedestrian bridge on an emergency basis to safeguard life, health, and City property.
California Public Contract Code section 1102 defines an emergency as “a sudden unexpected occurrence that poses a clear and imminent danger, requiring immediate action to prevent or mitigate the loss or impairment of life, health, property, or essential public services”.
California Public Contract Code section 20168 authorizes the City Council, in case of an emergency, to pass a resolution by four-fifths vote declaring that the public interest and necessity demand the immediate expenditure of public money to safeguard life, health, or property, and expend any sum required in the emergency without complying with, among other things, the public bidding requirements of the Public Contract Code. Section 20168 requires that if notice for bids to let contracts will not be given, the City shall comply with California Public Contract Code section 22050.
At the same time, Public Contract Code section 22050 authorizes the City to proceed with awarding a public works contract to perform emergency work without giving a notice for bids to let contracts upon the adoption of a resolution by the City Council, approved by a four-fifths vote, finding that the emergency will not permit a delay resulting from a competitive solicitation for bids and that the action is necessary to respond to the emergency.
3 Additionally, Section 2.58.080, “Emergencies – Procedure”, of the Stanton Municipal Code (“SMC”) authorizes the City Council, by four-fifths vote, to proceed to replace or repair a public facility, take any directly related and immediate action required by that emergency, and procure the necessary equipment, services and supplies for those purposes, without giving notice for bids to let contracts. To utilize this section:
• An emergency must exist, such that repair or replacements are necessary to permit the continued conduct of the operation or services of the city or to avoid danger to life or property; and
• The City Council must find that the emergency will not permit a delay resulting from a competitive solicitation for bids, and
• The City Council must find that such action is necessary to respond to the emergency.
Staff now recommends that, pursuant to SMC Section 2.58.080 and Public Contracting Code Sections 20168 and 22050, the City Council declare that the damage to the Westerly End Station Park Pedestrian Bridge constitutes an emergency and find that the award of a contract for the emergency repair of the Westerly End Stanton Park Pedestrian Bridge is exempt from the competitive bidding requirements found in the Public Contract Code. With that, authorization should be given the City Manager, or her designee, to order any action required to remedy the emergency relating to the damaged condition of the bridge, procure the necessary equipment, services, and supplies for those purposes, and negotiate and execute a contract, with the assistance of the City Attorney, for emergency bridge repairs without giving notice for bids to let contracts.
The City Manager, or her designee, would be directed to report to the City Council at the next regularly scheduled meeting and at every regularly scheduled meeting thereafter until the action is terminated to determine if there is a need to continue the action. At the next regularly scheduled meeting and at every regularly scheduled meeting thereafter, the City Council must determine, by four-fifths vote, whether there is a need to continue the action.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The City Council previously approved an appropriation of $250,000 from the Fiscal Year 2024-25 General Fund Special Projects for the repair of the Stanton Park Pedestrian Bridge to cover the insurance deductible.
4 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
This project is categorically exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) Guidelines, Section 15301 Class 1 subsection (d), which exempts the restoration or rehabilitation of deteriorated or damaged structures, facilities, or mechanical equipment to meet current standards of public health and safety from environmental review under CEQA. Additionally, staff has determined that no exceptions to the categorical exemptions under CEQA Guidelines, Section 15300.2 apply to this project.

WHEREAS, compliance with competitive bidding procedures typically takes a number of months, and would not allow prompt action to be taken, as required to safeguard the public; and
WHEREAS, Section 2.58.080, “Emergencies – Procedure”, of the Stanton Municipal Code authorizes the City Council, by four-fifths vote, in the event of an emergency, to proceed to replace or repair a public facility, take any directly related and immediate action required by that emergency, and procure the necessary equipment, services and supplies for those purposes, without giving notice for bids to let contracts; and WHEREAS, the damage to the pedestrian bridge constituted an emergency and the City immediately, but temporarily, closed and secured the pedestrian bridge to prevent or mitigate the loss or impairment of life, health, property, or essential public services; and WHEREAS, these safety measures are only temporary and the City will need to procure additional services immediately to make the necessary repairs to the pedestrian bridge to safeguard life, health, or property; and
WHEREAS, the City Council hereby finds that the damage to the pedestrian bridge constitutes a sudden unexpected occurrence that poses a clear and imminent danger, requiring immediate action to prevent or mitigate the loss or impairment of life, health, property, or essential services. In its current state, the pedestrian bridge poses a safety risk as it is unsafe to traverse. Additionally, City residents who formerly relied on the pedestrian bridge to provide a safe, walkable route to the essential amenities located north of Stanton Park have expressed safety concerns, as alternative routes are less secure and pedestrian-friendly; and
WHEREAS, the City Council now desires to determine, by a four-fifths vote, that an emergency exists pursuant to the California Public Contracting Code and Stanton Municipal Code, authorize immediate expenditure of public money, and find that time does not permit the preparation of specifications and the solicitation of competitive bids before commencement of the emergency repairs to the pedestrian bridge.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON, CALIFORNIA, DOES RESOLVE, DECLARE, DETERMINE AND ORDER AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1: That the foregoing Recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by this reference.

Later that evening, then Mayor Pro Tem Van requested to agendize discussion regarding strengthening the City’s tobacco retail license ordinance to address any potential loopholes, ensure that the definition of both “tobacco retailer” and “flavored tobacco” is adequately defined, ensure that the City has an adequate application fee to cover the cost of enforcement and monitoring, and methodize compliance monitoring frequencies. At its regular meeting of December 12, 2023, the City Council directed staff to review the City’s existing tobacco retail license ordinance with a focus on strengthening the ordinance.
To ensure staff had the necessary time to address and respond to the Council’s direction, at its meeting of January 23, 2024, the Council adopted Urgency Ordinance No. 1138 establishing a temporary moratorium of 45 days on the establishment of any new tobacco retailer business and a temporary moratorium on any expansion, enlargement, and/or alteration of any existing tobacco retailer business. Subsequently, at its meeting of February 27, 2024, the Council adopted Urgency Ordinance No. 1139 extending the temporary moratorium through January 22, 2025.
Tobacco Retailer Registration Ordinance
Added in November 2019, Chapter 5.67 “Tobacco Retailer Registration” of the City’s Municipal Code memorializes the requirements related to operating as a tobacco retailer within the City.
Tobacco Retailer
The City is proposing to strengthen the Municipal Code by including any retail establishment that sells any amount of tobacco in its definition of “tobacco retailer” in Chapter 5.67 as follows:
“Tobacco retailer” means any person who sells, offers for sale, or does or offers to exchange for any form of consideration, tobacco, tobacco products or tobacco paraphernalia, and that has at least fifty percent of tobacco, tobacco products, or tobacco paraphernalia as the retailer’s regular stock in trade, as displayed for sale or exchange, in the retail establishment. This definition is without regard to the quantity of tobacco, tobacco products, or tobacco paraphernalia actually sold or exchanged.
Based on the proposed definition, certain retail establishments such as drug stores, mini markets, convenience stores, and markets will now fall under the designation of “tobacco retailer”.
Pharmacy
The City is proposing to clarify the Municipal Code by updating its definition of “pharmacy” in Chapter 5.67 as follows:
“Pharmacy” has the same meaning as Business and Professions Code Section 4037 and ismeans any retail establishment in which the profession of pharmacy is practiced by a pharmacist licensed by the state of California in accordance with the Business and Professions Code Section 4036 and is where prescription pharmaceuticals are offered for sale, regardless of whether the retail establishment sells other retail goods in addition to prescription pharmaceuticals.
Flavored Tobacco
The City’s Municipal Code already includes a provision prohibiting the sale of flavored tobacco products.
Flavored Tobacco Products. Flavored Tobacco Products Prohibited. No tobacco retailer, nor any of the retailer’s agents or employees, shall sell or offer for sale, or possess with intent to sell or offer for sale, any flavored tobacco product. (Section
5.67.030.H)
The City is proposing to strengthen the Municipal Code by adding new definitions for “characterizing flavor” and “flavored tobacco product”. “Characterizing flavor” means any tobacco product that contains a taste or smell, other than the taste or smell of tobacco, that is distinguishable by an ordinary consumer either prior to, or during consumption of, a tobacco product, including but not limited to, any taste or smell relating to fruit, menthol, mint, wintergreen chocolate, cocoa, vanilla, honey, molasses, or any candy, dessert, alcoholic beverage, herb or spice. A tobacco product shall not be determined to have a characterizing flavor solely because of the use of additives or flavorings or the provision of ingredient information. Rather, it is the presence of a distinguishable taste or aroma, or both, as described in the first sentence of this definition, that constitutes characterizing flavor.
“Flavored tobacco product” means any tobacco product that imparts a characterizing flavor. There is a rebuttable presumption that a tobacco product is a flavored tobacco product if a tobacco retailer, manufacturer, or any employee or agent of a tobacco retailer or manufacturer has (i) made a public statement or claim that the tobacco product imparts a characterizing flavor; (ii) used text and/or images on the tobacco product’s labeling or packaging to explicitly or implicitly indicate that the tobacco product imparts a characterizing flavor or (iii) taken action directed to consumers that would be reasonably expected to cause consumers to believe the tobacco product imparts a characterizing flavor.
Tobacco Products
There is a wide array of tobacco products that are constantly evolving. The City is proposing to strength the Municipal Code by expanding the definition of tobacco products. "Tobacco product" means any product or substance containing, made of, or derived from tobacco or nicotine that is intended for human consumptionleaf, whether smoked, heated, chewed, absorbed, dissolved, inhaled, snorted, sniffed, or ingested by any other means, including, but not limited to, cigarettes, cigars, pipe tobacco, hookah tobacco, snuff, chewing tobacco, dipping tobacco, snus, bidis, or any other preparation of tobacco; and any product or formulation of matter containing biologically active amounts of nicotine or a synthetic nicotine product that is manufactured, sold, offered for sale, or otherwise distributed with the expectation that the product or matter will be introduced into the human body, but does not include any cessation product specifically approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration for use in treating nicotine or tobacco dependence.
Tobacco product includes any component, part, or accessory intended or reasonably expected to be used with a Tobacco product, whether or not sold separately.
Application Fee
The City conducts regular fee schedule reviews and will include an application fee for consideration during the next scheduled review.
Compliance Monitoring
To strengthen the City’s compliance monitoring efforts, in June 2024 the City submitted an application for the Tobacco Grant Program during the 2024/25 call for applications period with the support of Townsend Public Affairs. Funding was recently awarded in the amount of $62,400 per year for three years, and including funding for operating expenses and administrative costs equals a total grant award amount of $199,710. These grant funds combined with existing funds approved as part of the annual Public Safety Services Operating Budget will fund a newly created Code Enforcement Specialist/Tobacco Enforcement position within the Code Enforcement division. The position would be funded for three years and would be responsible for continuous monitoring of approximately 40 tobacco retailers throughout the City, in addition to other retail establishments that sell tobacco products. The position would focus on enforcing flavor ban restrictions, as well as conducting retailer education outreach activities. The position would also work closely with the City Attorney’s Office to coordinate citations, fines, and license revocations, as appropriate.
ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:
Cigarette smoking has long been recognized as a major public health concern. The U.S.
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention states the following on their website at www.cdc.gov/tobacco/about/index.html:
• Cigarette smoking is a major public health concern, with over 16 million Americans living with a smoking-related disease.
• Smoking and secondhand smoke exposure cause over 480,000 deaths in the U.S. each year.
• Smoking harms nearly every organ of the body and causes many diseases. • Quitting smoking lowers the risk for early death and of developing smoking-related diseases.
From the 2012 Report of the Surgeon General “Preventing Tobacco Use Among Youth and Young Adults1”:
Since the first Surgeon General’s report on youth in 1994, the basis for concern about smoking during adolescence and young adulthood has expanded beyond the immediate health consequences for the young smoker to a deeper understanding of the implications for health across the life span from early use of tobacco.
From the 2016 Report of the Surgeon General “E-Cigarette Use Among Youth and Young Adults2”:
E-cigarette use among U.S. youth and young adults is now a major public health concern. … These products are now the most commonly used form of tobacco among youth in the United States, surpassing conventional tobacco products, including cigarettes, cigars, chewing tobacco, and hookahs.
On November 8, 2022, California voters upheld state law prohibiting tobacco retailers from selling most flavored tobacco products, including flavored e-cigarettes, menthol cigarettes and tobacco product flavor enhancers. Despite the retail sale prohibition in current law, flavored tobacco products continue to be sold in California.
On September 28, 2024, Governor Newsom signed Assembly Bill 3218 (AB 3218) (Attachment A) improving implementation of current law that bans flavored tobacco products in California. AB 3218 will allow the Attorney General to make publicly available a list of permissible products so that industry participants and law enforcement will be able to easily identify what products can lawfully be sold and will create penalties for the sale of unlawful products as well as provide the ability to seize the unlawful products.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
AB 3218, Wood. Unflavored Tobacco List.
Existing law prohibits a person from selling or otherwise furnishing tobacco products, as defined, to a person under 21 years of age. Existing law, the Stop Tobacco Access to Kids Enforcement (STAKE) Act, provides for enforcement of that prohibition by the Attorney General.
Existing law prohibits a tobacco retailer, as defined, from offering for sale any flavored tobacco product or tobacco product flavor enhancer, as specified.
This bill would require the Attorney General to, by no later than December 31, 2025, establish and maintain on the Attorney General’s internet website a list of tobacco product brand styles that lack a characterizing flavor, as defined.
This bill would require each manufacturer or importer of tobacco products to submit to the Attorney General a list of all brand styles, as defined, of tobacco products that they manufacture or import for sale or distribution in or into California. The bill would require a manufacturer or importer that submits a product pursuant to these provisions to, under penalty of perjury, describe each brand style, brand, and product category, as specified, describe, for each brand style, if a formal authorization, approval, or order from the United States Food and Drug Administration has been sought and its status, if applicable, and certify that each brand style lacks a characterizing flavor. By expanding the scope of the crime of perjury, this bill would create a state-mandated local program. The bill would require a fee for each submission and renewal of a brand style for the costs incurred by the Attorney General for processing the submissions, and operating the list, as specified. The bill would create the California Unflavored Tobacco List Fund for the collection of these fees, and would continuously appropriate these fees to the Attorney General for the purposes above, thereby making an appropriation. The bill would require the Attorney General to determine whether each brand style has a characterizing flavor, as specified. The bill would require any manufacturer or importer that submits a brand style in this way to, among Home Bill Information California Law Publications Other Resources My Subscriptions My Favorites Bill Text - AB-3218 Unflavored Tobacco List.

other things, consent to the jurisdiction of the California courts for the purpose of enforcing these provisions and to appoint an agent for service of process, as specified. The bill would authorize the Attorney General to seek injunctive relief and a civil penalty up to $50,000 against any manufacturer or importer who falsely certifies that brand style determined to have a characteristic flavor, lacks a characteristic flavor.
This bill would refine the definitions of characteristic flavor and tobacco product for purposes of the prohibition and these provisions.
This bill would prohibit a distributor or wholesaler from selling any tobacco product not listed on the Unflavored Tobacco List or any tobacco product flavor enhancer to any person, as specified, for sale in the state and would prohibit a delivery seller from selling a tobacco product not listed on the Unflavored Tobacco List or a tobacco product flavor enhancer to a consumer in California. The bill would authorize the Attorney General to assess civil penalties, as specified, for violations of these prohibitions.
This bill would authorize the Attorney General to recover reasonable attorney’s fees, investigative costs, and other related costs, against a nonprevailing party in a civil action brought pursuant to these provisions. The bill would require moneys recovered by the Attorney General in an action pursuant to these provisions to be deposited in the Public Rights Law Enforcement Special Fund, as specified.
This bill would also ban the retail sale of any tobacco product not on the Unflavored Tobacco List, as specified.
The bill would authorize the California Tax and Fee Administration or a law enforcement agency that discovers that a retailer possesses, stores, owns, or has made a retail sale of flavored tobacco products or tobacco product flavor enhancers to seize those products, as specified. Under the bill, seized products would be delivered to the department within 30 days and deemed forfeited to the state. The bill would require the department to issue a civil penalty against the retailer equal to $50 per individual package of flavored tobacco product or tobacco product flavor enhancer seized or delivered to the department, with increasing penalties for subsequent seizures.
If a wholesaler possesses, stores, or owns, or has made a sale of, a tobacco product not on the Unflavored Tobacco List or a tobacco product flavor enhancer, the bill would authorize the department to seize the tobacco product or tobacco product flavor enhancer and would require the department to impose a civil penalty if the property is seized, as specified. If a distributor or other person has made a sale of a tobacco product not on the Unflavored Tobacco List or a tobacco product flavor enhancer, or a wholesaler has made a sale of a tobacco product not on the Unflavored Tobacco List or a tobacco product flavor enhancer and the department or a local law enforcement agency has not seized the product, the bill would require the department to issue a warning for a first offense, suspend their license for a second offense, and revoke their license for a third offense.
Existing law, the Cigarette and Tobacco Products Tax Law, generally prohibits the retail sale of cigarettes in California unless the sale is a vendor-assisted, face-to-face sale. Existing law authorizes the delivery sale of cigarettes or tobacco products if specified conditions are met.
This bill would refine the definition of cigarette for the purpose of these provisions, and would expand that prohibition to include the sale of tobacco products. The bill would require a delivery seller of cigarettes or tobacco products to comply with any applicable state law or local ordinance that imposes restrictions on the retail sale of cigarettes or tobacco products directly to the public from a retail location as if the delivery sale occurred entirely within the state and place.
Existing constitutional provisions require that a statute that limits the right of access to the meetings of public bodies or the writings of public officials and agencies be adopted with findings demonstrating the interest protected by the limitation and the need for protecting that interest.
This bill would make legislative findings to that effect.
This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 104559.5 of the Health and Safety Code proposed by SB 1230 to be operative only if this bill and SB 1230 are enacted and this bill is enacted last.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
