Contra Costa DATE: July 27, 1993 _ County sr `y SUBJECT: PROPOSED SMOKING LEGISLATION SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION RECOMMENDATION: 1. Send a letter to Speaker Brown, Senator Pro Tem Roberti, and Senator Charles Calderon expressing opposition to any state law, such as one recently reported in the Los Angeles Times (see attached), which would increase the tobacco excise tax and dedicate the money to counties and would include a total.State preemption in the area of the regulation of smoking. 2. Direct the Health Services Department to monitor the State Legislature for any potential legislation that would include preemption clauses which would restrict local efforts to pass effective anti-smoking legislation. 3. Direct the County Lobbyist and Health Services Department to oppose any legislation which includes a restrictive preemption clause. BACKGROUND: On March 2, 1993, the Board of Supervisors voted to support AB 13,which prohibits smoking in any enclosed space at a place of employment, and to monitor the bill for any preemption clauses which would restrict local efforts to pass effective anti-smoking legislation. On June 15, 1993, the Board of Supervisors voted to oppose AB 996, which would preempt local regulation of smoking in public places and which would impose less stringent statewide regulations than currently exist in Contra Costa County and many of its cities. The tobacco tax proposal initially floated by Sen. Calderon and potentially being considered by other state legislators would raise the tobacco excise tax by 17 cents: 15 cents to be allocated to counties, and two cents to the Breast Cancer Research Fund. At the same time, this proposal would enact a law more restrictive than AB 996, which the Board actively opposes, that would preempt all local tobacco control ordinances throughout the state and provide significantly less public health protection than the model smoking ordinance crafted by the City/County Relations Committee (see attached comparison of AB 1.3,AB 996, and 'New Bill" being distributed by the American Lung Association). CONTINUED ON ATTACHMENT: X YES SIGNATURE RECOMMENDATION OF COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR RECOMMENDATION OF BOARD COMMITTEE APPROVE OTHER SIGNATURES): ACTION OF BOARD ON July 27 , 1993 APPROVED AS RECOMMENDED OTHER X DELETED from consideratinnthe request of Senator Calderon for an increase in the cigarette tax; REQUESTED the County Administrator to report to the Board by August 17 , 1993 , relative to the status of negotiations on this proposed tax. VOTE OF SUPERVISORS I HEREBY CERTIFY THAT THIS IS A TRUE X UNANIMOUS (ABSENT - - ) AND CORRECT COPY OF AN ACTION TAKEN AYES: NOES: AND ENTERED ON THE MINUTES OF THE BOARD ABSENT: ABSTAIN: OF SUPERVISORS ON THE DATE SHOWN. Contact Person: CC: See page 2 ATTESTED July 27 , 1993 PHIL BATCHELOR,CLERK OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR BY `�( fiLp DEPUTY 2 In addition to the unincorporated areas of the County, the following cities have already adopted significantly stronger smoking ordinances which would be preempted by legislation being proposed by Senator Calderon: Clayton, Concord, El Cerrito, Hercules, Lafayette, Martinez, Orinda, Pinole, Pleasant Hill, and Walnut Creek. The city of Antioch will be considering the model ordinance July 27; the city of Brentwood will be hearing the model ordinance this summer. Other cities in which City Councils have been asked to hear the ordinance by citizens include Richmond, Danville, and San Ramon. Although Los Angeles County has taken a position in support of the proposal because of potential revenues, it would drastically undermine the City of Los Angeles' new anti-smoking ordinance and undercut its responsibility to protect the public health.
