Summary

The bill creates a statewide definition of a cigar bar and requires it to hold a quota retail drink license, generate at least 15% of revenue from cigar‑related sales, not sell to anyone under 21, and ban e‑cigarettes inside. It also lets local governments require permits, conduct inspections, and waive the drink‑license requirement. The measure aims to regulate cigar‑focused venues while giving localities flexibility to manage them.
