Prepared by: Robert B. Ewing City Attorney Attachments: A-Ordinance No. 2020-01 B-Ordinance No. 2020-01 (redline/strikeout version) ORDINANCE NO. 2020-01 AMENDING SECTION 7-6 OF THE DANVILLE MUNICIPAL CODE REGULATING TOBACCO RETAILING, ADVERTISING AND PROMOTION, AND BANNING THE SALE OF ELECTRONIC SMOKING DEVICES AND E- LIQUIDS The Danville Town Council does ordain as follows: SECTION 1. FINDINGS. In enacting this ordinance, the Town Council makes the following findings: WHEREAS, nationwide, electronic cigarette use has increased at alarming rates since the first products became available about 10 years ago, and while there have been many successful efforts to reduce underage tobacco use, the growing availability of e-cigarettes has reversed those positive trends; and WHEREAS, electronic smoking devices often mimic conventional tobacco products in shape, size, and color, with the user exhaling a smoke-like vapor similar in appearance to the exhaled smoke from cigarettes and other conventional tobacco products; and WHEREAS, although the manufacture and distribution of flavored cigarettes (excluding menthol) is banned by federal law, neither federal nor California laws restrict sales of flavored non-cigarette tobacco products, such as electronic smoking devices and the nicotine solutions used in these devices; and WHEREAS, a central requirement of the Tobacco Control Act is premarket review of all new tobacco products not on the market in the United States as of February 15, 2007 — must be authorized by the FDA for sale in the United States before it may enter the marketplace. A new tobacco product may not be marketed until the FDA has found that the product is: (1) appropriate for the protection of the public health upon review of a premarket tobacco application; (2) substantially equivalent to a grandfathered product; or (3) exempt from substantial equivalence requirements; and WHEREAS, the FDA’s premarket review process is intended to determine if a tobacco product is appropriate for the protection of the public health “with respect to the risks and benefits to the population as a whole, including users and non -users of the tobacco product, and taking into account: (A) the increased or decreased likelihood that existing users of tobacco products will stop using such products; and (B) the increased or decreased likelihood that those who do not use tobacco products will start using such products”; and DocuSign Envelope ID: B8958586-3F27-484D-A163-177D2294A719 ATTACHMENT A PAGE 2 OF ORDINANCE NO. 2020-01 WHEREAS, virtually all electronics cigarettes that are sold today are considered “new tobacco products” under the Tobacco Control Act, but have not obtained a premarket review order and the FDA has not taken action to enforce this requirement; and WHEREAS, in 2017, the FDA issued Guidance that gives electronic cigarette manufacturers until August 8, 2022 to submit their application for premarket review. The Guidance further allows unapproved products to stay on the market indefinitely, until such time as the FDA complies with its statutory duty to conduct a premarket review to determine whether a new tobacco product poses a risk to public health. In March 2019, the FDA issued draft guidance in which it considered moving the premarket application deadline up by one year for certain flavored e-cigarettes products. It is not known when, if ever, this narrow adjustment will become final or will take effect; and WHEREAS, the California Constitution, Article XI, Section 7, provides cities and counties with the authority to enact ordinances to protect the health, safety, welfare, and morals of their citizens; and WHEREAS, the FDA and federal law also expressly grants state and local governments the right to enact measures that are more restrictive than those in the federal law; and WHEREAS, the Town of Danville has a substantial interest in promoting compliance with federal, state, and local laws prohibiting the sale or furnishing of tobacco products and electronic cigarette products to minors and in discouraging the illegal purchase of tobacco and electronic cigarette products by minors.
