City Council Regular Meeting Minutes October 8, 2019 Page 6 1 recently pulling all flavored products off the shelf and she would suggest that there be an 2 amendment to restrict all flavored to adult only stores. Minneapolis and St. Paul have this, 3 Lauderdale, Falcon Heights also have this. This would pull all flavored products out of stores 4 that high school students frequent. She noted she brought this up at the very first reading, 5 September 24th, and did not know that she should have taken more of an active role in between 6 the readings. She was glad the City Council did this but was not sure why this did not include 7 flavored products as well. 8 9 Mayor Faust explained the City was trying to get the vaping and cigarette smoking to age 21. 10 Once it gets to 21, if someone wants to damage themselves that is their prerogative. He thought 11 this should be a State issue and not dealt with at the city level. He thought the City exercised its 12 power effectively and thoughtfully and the goal is to keep it out of the high school kids' hands. 13 14 I.
