BACKGROUND
The City of Santa Clarita has received a contract amendment for a Tobacco Control
Services Grant from the County of Los Angeles, Department of Health Services. The
amendment is for an additional $60,000 to continue community outreach and education
efforts and to implement a pilot program for smoke-free pharmacies for fiscal year 2000-01.
The goals of the Tobacco Control Services Grant are to:
• Facilitate policy change reducing exposure to the dangers of environmental tobacco
smoke.
• Provide merchants with skills and information to comply with tobacco control laws.
• Provide information to the community, especially youth, regarding the risks of tobacco.
The City has successfully competed for Tobacco Control Services grant funding annually
since 1997. In the past, funding has been used to educate youth on the dangers of tobacco
and environmental tobacco smoke, to assist businesses in complying with the smoke-free
workplace regulations, to provide employee health education to businesses, and to help
merchants and businesses comply with the rules established by the tobacco master
settlement.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION
Decline grant funds.
Other action as determined by City Council.
