Intro:

Copper Creek Golf Club in Pleasant Hill has been hit with a 30-day suspension of its retail cigarette/tobacco permit.

“We’ve received a letter from the attorney general’s office stating that the Copper Creek golf course clubhouse had a second violation for selling tobacco to minors,” Joni Haag, city clerk and finance director, said at the Oct. 27 meeting of the Pleasant Hill City Council. “Rather than paying a $1,500 fine, they would rather serve a 30-day suspension, which is their privilege.”

The suspension will run from Nov. 15 to Dec. 14.

Copper Creek Golf Club’s second violation occurred in late June.
