Office of the Board of Health 166 Boulder Drive Fitchburg, Massachusetts 01420 978-829-1870 AGENDA BOARD OF HEALTH AGENDA Tuesday, December 6 at 6:30PM Memorial Middle School Library 615 Rollstone Street, Fitchburg Fitchburg BOH members will attend the Committee on Legislative Affairs to discuss agenda item #212-16 and the draft Tobacco Flavor Restriction Regulation. (212-16 Councilor Marcus DiNatale, to petition for a resolution of the Fitchburg City Council to the Fitchburg Board of Health that the city council expresses its continued support of City Code Chapter 164 Section 4 and existing state law, that anyone under the age of 18 be restricted from being sold tobacco products. An age restriction of 21 or older will only result in decreased sales at our local establishments thereby hurting the local economy while incentivizing local customers to migrate outside for these products that have no such restriction. Furthermore, be it resolved that the city council supports no restrictions on where flavored tobacco can be sold in the city.)
