cigar lounges

Cigar bars become the first exemption to the city’s smoking ban that was passed over a decade ago.

The changes would close what is seen as a loophole in state law by allowing patrons to sample cigars in a cigar lounge.

The central Nebraska city has approved cigar bars to be opened within city limits, provided they meet certain requirements.

Passage of the bill will allow for up to seven cigar shops to become cigar bars provided they meet certain requirements.

If signed into law, it would bring an end to 20 years of prohibition on new cigar bars.

A similar bill in 2021 failed to clear the North Dakota Senate by a single vote, but now the legislation is signed into law.

The bill allows for “cigar lounges” so long as a store generates at least 15 percent of its revenue from the sale of cigars and meets other requirements regarding physical space.

A similar proposal failed in 2021 by a single vote.
