Scotts Valley, Calif. Passes New Licensing Fee for Tobacco Retailers
It’s a little more costly to be a tobacco retailer in the city of Scotts Valley, Calif., as the city council approved a new $150 licensing fee on all retailers selling tobacco products during its meeting on Wednesday.
The money will go to funding two annual retail checks where undercover minors and the Scotts Valley police department will attempt to purchase tobacco products from retailers in the city, which is located 30 miles south of San Jose.
The results of the vote were reported by the Press Banner.

I strive to capture the essence of a cigar and the people behind them in my work – every cigar you light up is the culmination of the work of countless people and often represents generations of struggle and stories. For me, it’s about so much more than the cigar – it’s about the story behind it, the experience of enjoying the work of artisans and the way that a good cigar can bring people together. In addition to my work with halfwheel, I’m the public address announcer for the Colorado Rockies and Arizona Diamondbacks during spring training, as well as for the Salt River Rafters of the Arizona Fall League, the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury and previously the Arizona Rattlers of the Indoor Football League. I also work in a number of roles for Major League Baseball, plus I'm a voice over artist. Prior to joining halfwheel, I covered the Phoenix and national cigar scene for Examiner.com, and was an editor for Cigar Snob magazine.
