A tobacco shop in Auburn has been fined and may face closure if the fines are not paid promptly, as per officials in Cayuga County.
According to a report by The Citizen, the health committee of Cuyahoga County approved penalties earlier this week for the Panda Smoke Shop located in Aurelius.
This store faced three violations, one of which resulted in a hefty fine of $20,000. Officials say that the Panda Smoke Shop has previously been found in violation of state laws and was recently ordered to close due to selling flavored e-cigarette products banned in New York, improper display of tobacco products, and failure to have required tobacco sales signage.
State and local officials have been working to crack down on the sale of e-cigarette products.
Last spring, a ban was issued following the first round of misconduct, and a hearing was held in May. However, there was no one present from Panda Smoke Shop.
County officials expect that closing the store will not face significant challenges if they do not respond, pay fines, or resolve the ongoing issues.
