“The town of Bethlehem could adopt stringent new regulations over the sale of tobacco that would require retail stores to purchase a license and banning vaping shops within 1,000 feet of a school. The town board has plans to vote on adopting the new regulations, which are opposed by convenience stores and gas stations but have broad support from local residents. The vote would take place by Zoom during the town board’s remote meeting Wednesday night at 6 p.m. The meeting will be broadcast live through the town’s web site.”
