(A) No person shall sell, offer to sell, give away, furnish or otherwise deliver any licensed product:
(1) By means of any type of vending machine; or
(2) By any other means, or to any other person prohibited by federal, state, or other local law, ordinance provisions or other regulation.
(B) No person shall sell, offer to sell, give away, furnish or otherwise deliver any licensed product to any person under the age of 21.
(1) Licensees shall verify by means of government issued photographic identification that the purchaser is at least 21 years of age. Verification is not required for a person over the age of 30. That the person appeared to be 30 years of age or older does not constitute a defense to a violation of this section.
(2) Notice of the legal sales age and age verification requirement must be posted prominently and in plain view at all times at each location where licensed products are offered for sale. The required signage, which will be provided to the licensee by the city, must be posted in a manner that is clearly visible to anyone who is or is considering making a purchase.
(C) No person shall distribute samples of any licensed product free of charge or at a nominal cost.
(D) No person shall sell, offer to sell, give away, furnish or otherwise deliver any licensed product by means of self-service merchandising or by any means whereby the customer may have access to the items without having to request the items from the license holder, their agents, or employees. All licensed products shall be stored behind a counter or other area not freely accessible to customers.
