The requirements can either be enforced by the City or deferred to <br />the County. <br />Goetten asked if the City did the enforcement for a year and found that they would <br />prefer County enforcement, if that could be done. Moorse said he believed so. <br />Goetten said she is appalled that the prohibition does not apply to cigars. It was noted <br />that tobacco products includes cigars but the legislation does not prohibit self - service <br />displays of cigars. <br />Jabbour noted that these are found at Rick's Super Valu and O'Sullivan's. <br />Moorse said he could check to see if the requirement could be made more restrictive. <br />Moorse was asked if the State could be assessed for the time and energy to enforce the <br />requirement. Moorse noted that the City could defer to the County for the enforcement, <br />but the same taxpayers would pay for it. <br />Peterson moved, Goetten seconded, to adopt City Tobacco Ordinance and the changes <br />required by State and Federal Law, with the understanding that Staff will review the <br />issue of cigars. Vote: Ayes 5, Nays 0. <br />( 918) FIRE, BURGLARY AND SAFETY ALARM REGULATIONS AND <br />REQUIREMENTS - ORDINANCE AMENDMENT NO. 165, 2ND SERIES <br />Moorse reported that the amendment is a change in the ordinance as it relates to fire, <br />burglary, and safety alarms. The ordinance currently states that a fee would be charged <br />only after the third false alarm. This amendment allows for a fee to be charged for the <br />second false alarm and is reflected in the fee schedule. The fee schedule is progressive. <br />27 <br />
