The level of nicotine in e-liquids has repeatedly been found to be higher than the concentration written on the label 33 by manufacturers and present in products labelled nicotine-free
Pat McKone with the American Lung Association spoke at the meeting in favor of the measures: We need to do better than what were doing now because were in an epidemic I have never seen kids as addicted to nicotine with these new Delivery Systems as Ive seen in the past 2 or 3 years to the point where theyre getting suspended from school 12-13 times a year and eventually dropping out. Pat McKone, of the American Lung Association at the 8/4/2025 City Council Meeting Lynn Ziegler, owner of the Ziggys Gas Station, spoke against the measures and how it would have affected her business: So I leave you with this question do you really support small businesses that pay taxes in Northfield and support the community or do you want Northfield money to go elsewhere? Lynn Ziegler, owner of Ziggys at the 8/4/2025 City Council Meeting While advocates argued that this would help lower use of tobacco products by youth, several council members cited concerns with the proposal, with Councilor Jessica Peterson-White stating that she needed more data to vote for the proposal: I am willing to recognize that sometimes individual businesses have to suffer in the face of new regulations and I think things change and sometimes things have to change but I think to feel like that was a worthwhile trade-off that would be really effective here I would need to see some evidence from other communities that have done this that its actually going to reduce youth e-cigarette use and I have not yet heard that Jessica Petereson-White, Northfield City Councilor at the 8/4/2025 City Council Meeting Councilor Chad Beumer, argued that the ordinance would hurt small businesses and add to the inconsistency in regulations in the city: Responsible adults go in there to buy products and when they go in there to buy those products they buy sodas they buy snacks they buy many other things in those stores and thats the impact that banning this is going to have on those businesses I really have a problem with this when were sitting here having a conversation about opening up and allowing cannabis dispensaries here in town all of which will sell flavored products. Chad Beumer, Northfield City Councilor at the 8/4/2025 City Council Meeting The Council ultimately postponed the proposal on a 6 to 1 vote and sent the legislation back for ASAP to further review and research
