No tobacco retail license will be granted to a tobacco retailer for a tobacco retail establishment location that is within 2,000 feet of any other existing licensed tobacco retail establishment, as measured by the shortest line from the property line of the space to be occupied by the applicant for a license to the nearest property line of the existing licensee. This restriction does not apply to an applicant that holds a state tax license to sell tobacco products in the same location for at least one year before the date this section was enacted into law.
