Aurora extends moratorium on smoke, tobacco and CBD shops

- Wendy DiAlesandro

Smoke, tobacco and CBD shops are still banned in Aurora after the city extended its years-long moratorium another year.

The moratorium, which city council unanimously approved on Feb. 10, 2025, prohibits the city from accepting and issuing permits for vape shops, e-cigarette shops, smoke shops, tobacco shops and shops that sell any product related to CBD, cannabidiol oils or edibles.
