Item Appointment of Acting Mayor
Description
Periodically, the Mayor’s absence requires that official duties (such as signing official
documents, running City Council meetings, etc.) need to be conducted in a timely
manner. Past practice has been to rotate this position among the various City Council
Members. The 2013 Acting Mayor was Council Member Keith Gosline.
The Mayor still retains the right to name other Council Members as Acting Mayor
when planned absences are anticipated, but the formal designation of an Acting
Mayor allows for continuity of operations in the case of an emergency or unplanned
absence.

REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
The City That Soars!
Item Approve Amended Tobacco Ordinance
Description At the November and December workshops Council discussed revising the tobacco
ordinance to amend definition language from nicotine and lobelia delivery devises to
electronic delivery devices.
The new electronic delivery device definition is Electronic Delivery Device shall mean any
product containing or delivering nicotine, lobelia, or any other substance intended for
human consumption that can be used by a person to simulate smoking in the delivery of
nicotine or any other substance through inhalation of vapor from the product. Electronic
delivery device shall include any component part of such a product whether or not sold
separately. Electronic delivery device shall not include any product that has been approved
or otherwise certified by the United States Food and Drug Administration for legal sales for
use in tobacco cessation treatment or other medical purposes, and is being marketed and sold
solely for that approved purpose.
This definition change would affect the important areas of the tobacco ordinance in
these areas:
•Prohibit sampling e-cigarettes within the indoor areas of establishments;
•Prohibit the sale of tobacco products without first having obtained a tobacco
retailer license;
•Prohibit the proximity to youth oriented facilities (1,000 feet);
•Prohibit the distance from other retail sales of tobacco products (2,000 feet);
and
•Prohibit open e-cigarettes displays that are accessible to the public without
intervention.
•Allow authorized city officials to include annual compliance checks of
electronic delivery devices.
The council also discussed adding strict language prohibiting the seller of tobacco
and electronic delivery devices to be at least 18 years of age or older.
These changes have been amended and are attached hereto.
