FROM:
Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
SB464 by Campbell (Relating to county and municipal authority to prohibit the operation of e-cigarette retailers near primary or secondary schools.), As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
This bill would allow municipal and county governments to prohibit e-cigarette retailers from operating within 300 feet of a primary or secondary school campus. The prohibition would not apply to e-cigarette retailers whose sales of e-cigarettes are less than half of their total sales.
The number of local governments that would implement the provisions of the bill is unknown; therefore, the revenue implications of this bill cannot be determined but are not expected to be significant.
Local Government Impact
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
