Flavored Tobacco Ban

This week our board unanimously approved a new ordinance banning the sale of flavored tobacco products in unincorporated areas.

For decades, we were making incredible progress in decreasing tobacco use among young people. But flavored e-cigarettes have reversed that trend.

Now nearly 1 in 10 high school students report using e-cigarettes. By taking action now and banning the sale of flavored products that mask the smell and taste of tobacco, we may be able to save this next generation from the same terrible health effects of nicotine addiction that generations before them suffered from.
