Must keep all tobacco products and tobacco paraphernalia out of public view. <br /> The public display of tobacco products and tobacco paraphernalia in violation of <br /> this provision constitutes tobacco retailing without a permit in violation of Section <br /> 9.32.150; and <br /> 2. Must not display any advertisement related to tobacco products and tobacco <br /> paraphernalia that promotes the sale of such products from the tobacco retailer <br /> or tobacco store's location or that could lead a reasonable consumer to believe <br /> that such products can be obtained at that location. <br /> G. Limited, Conditional Privilege. Nothing in this chapter shall be construed to grant any <br /> person obtaining and maintaining a permit any status or right other than the limited <br /> conditional privilege to act as a tobacco retailer or tobacco store at the location in the <br /> city identified on the face of the permit. <br /> Section 9.32.080.

It is the responsibility of each person to be informed of all laws applicable to tobacco <br /> retailing. <br /> C. No person may rely on the issuance of a permit as a determination by the city that <br /> the person is in compliance with all laws related to its operation. A permit issued <br /> contrary to this chapter or any other law, or on the basis of false or misleading <br /> information supplied by an applicant, shall be revoked under Section 9.32.160 of this <br /> chapter.
