Re: Retail Tobacco Check Flavored Violation-Warning

Dear Ms. Martiner.
On November 4, 2015 the Health Department conducted a Retail Tobacco check of your retail store.
Health Inspector Philip Renaud found 5 packages of multipack Garcia Vega Red Game cigars, and 10
packs of Black and Mild Jazz for sale to customers.The flavored tobacco was removed from shelf.
At the Board of Health Hearing on November 16, 2015 the board has decided to issue a one-time
warning to anyone that had flavored tobacco for sale during this past inspection. Please refer to the
Massachusetts Health Association Board's website at www.mahb.or�for the flavored tobacco restricted
list.
Any other further violations of the Yarmouth Tobacco Regulation will be considered a violation.
In July 2014 you were informed by a letter and visit by a Health Department personnel of the new Board
of Health Regulation Prohibiting the sale of tobacco products to individuals under the age of 21,along
with prohibiting the sale of flavored tobacco products,self-service displays,and cigar pricing.
If you should have any questions or comments regarding the above matter, I can be reached at the
Health Department at(508) 398-2231 ext. 124L
