• �'' •� <br />• y, <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />Item No: 08A <br />Meeting Date: January 24, 2022 <br />Type of Business: Council Business <br />City Administrator Review: <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: Nyle Zikmund, City Administrator <br />Item Title/Subject: Second Reading and Adoption, Ordinance 986 Amending Title <br />XI, Chapter 118, Relating to Cigarettes and Tobacco Products <br />Introduction: <br />Chapter 118 of the Mounds View Municipal Code relating to cigarettes and tobacco <br />products needs amendment as recommended by the City Attorney. Some minor "clean-up" <br />revisions are also needed. <br />Discussion: <br />As stated previously, staff received a couple of recent inquiries regarding on-line tobacco <br />sales and/or delivery. The City Attorney recommends that Chapter 118 be amended to <br />clarify that the sale of "regulated products" must take place on the licensed premises of the <br />retail establishment and not by means of delivery. <br />Along with this revision, a few minor corrections are necessary. Chapter 118 contains <br />reference to the City's fees schedule for violations of this Chapter. However, as violations <br />of this Chapter are misdemeanors, they are processed via the Ramsey Court system and <br />fees and penalties are determined by Minnesota State Statutes. Therefore, any reference <br />to the Mounds View Fee Schedule is to be removed. <br />Introduction and first reading of this proposed ordinance took place at your January 10, 2022 <br />City Council meeting. <br />Staff Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends that the City Council conduct the first reading and adopt Ordinance No. <br />986. Publication in the legal newspaper will take place February 1, 2022. <br />Respectfully, <br />Nyle Zikmund <br />City Administrator <br />The Mounds View Vision <br />A Thriving Desirable Community <br />
