Pouches to adult-only stores

Conway, a town of roughly 1,900 people in Franklin County, adopted Nicotine-Free Generation regulations on May 12, 2025, together with a rule moving nicotine pouches to adult-only stores.

The town released 129 pages — mostly Board of Health agendas, minutes and email correspondence from October 2024 through July 2025. They show the proposal arriving through a regional government agency that supplied the template, walked the Board through the steps, testified at the hearing, and wrote the press release afterward.

Conway's production has substantial gaps: nothing from January 2023 through September 2024 despite the request covering that period, no correspondence with the outside organizations named in the request, and no contracts, grant applications or payment records.

Every document below opens as a PDF. Files the custodian produced in other formats — Word, Excel, Outlook messages — were converted for readability, and the file as produced sits beside each one behind a small grey tag (.DOCX) so the original is always one click away. Nothing in the production has been withheld, compressed or edited: the file count above is every file the custodian released. A few archives and calendar files cannot be rendered as PDF and appear in their original format, marked as such.
