Sacramento makes progress against tobacco sales to minors
Sales of tobacco to minors in Sacramento have plummeted in the nine years since the City Council enacted strict rules on retailers, city officials said.

Bob Rose, a code enforcement manager with the city, said that between 8 and 10 percent of retailers were discovered selling tobacco to underage decoys this year. Those numbers are less than half the retailers found to be selling to minors when the council adopted a tobacco ordinance in 2004, Rose said.
Under the ordinance, tobacco retailers must purchase a license from the city to operate. That $370 licensing fees pays for the store inspections.
"We're pleased with the outcome," Rose said.
