—Sec. 12-31. Purpose and Intent.
(a) Purpose. Because the city recognizes that many persons under the age of 18 years
purchase or otherwise obtain, possess and use tobacco, tobacco products and tobacco -related
devices, and such sales, possession and use are violations of both state and federal laws; and
because studies, which are on file at the state health department and which the city accepts and
adopts, have shown that most smokers begin smoking before they have reached the age of 18
years and that those persons who reach the age of 18 years without having started smoking are
significantly less likely to begin smoking; and because smoking has been shown to be the cause
of several serious health problems which subsequently place a financial burden on all levels of
government, this sestiE)Rarticle shall be intended to regulate the sale, possession and use of
tobacco, tobacco products and tobacco -related devices for the purpose of enforcing and
furthering existing laws, to protect minors against the serious effects associated with the illegal
use of tobacco, tobacco products and tobacco -related devices, and to further the official public
policy of the state in regard to preventing young people from starting to smoke as stated in Minn.
