AN ACT ESTABLISHING A TASK FORCE TO STUDY THE FEASIBILITY OF IMPLEMENTING DENSITY REQUIREMENTS FOR RETAILERS THAT SELL TOBACCO AND TOBACCO-RELATED PRODUCTS.

HB 6462 establishes a task force to study whether rules limiting how close tobacco retailers can be to each other or to sensitive locations (like schools) would be feasible. The task force will examine this issue but will not create new regulations itself. This bill directly affects businesses selling tobacco products and tobacco-related items, such as vape shops or cigar stores. The study aims to inform future policy decisions about retail density for these businesses, without making any immediate changes to current laws.
