BP: New tobacco law starts Monday in Bemidji city limits

BEMIDJI—The age to buy tobacco and tobacco products is set to increase from 18 to 21 in the city of Bemidji on Monday, with the same law change coming for most of Beltrami County in less than two weeks.

On March 20, the Bemidji City Council passed an ordinance raising the buying age to 21 for all tobacco-related products, including those related to vaping and e-cigarettes. The city's action followed a vote by the Beltrami County Board of Commissioners, which passed a similar ordinance Feb. 12.
