Board sets hearing pending for store lacking tobacco permit
Summary
The board reviewed a tobacco-control report submitted by Caesar Panjiram and was told a store has paid a fine but still does not hold a permit; the matter remains pending a formal hearing because the business has not met with staff to obtain a permit.
The board reviewed a tobacco‑control report submitted by Caesar Panjiram. A staff member told the board the store in question has paid its fine but "does not have a permit yet" and therefore has not completed the required permitting meeting with staff. The staff member said the case remains "pending a hearing."
Board members discussed the ownership question raised in the report and were told staff are following the enforcement timeline. No final enforcement action was taken at the meeting; the board was informed the item will proceed to a formal hearing to resolve permitting and ownership questions.
The shortfall of a permit, despite payment of a fine, is the stated reason for scheduling the hearing; the board did not vote on further sanctions at this meeting.
