RE: FY24 28E Agreement with Iowa Alcoholic Beverages Division (I -PLEDGE)
INTRODUCTION
This memo is to discuss the 28E agreement with the Iowa Alcoholic Beverages Division,
I -PLEDGE Tobacco, Alternative Nicotine and Vapor Product Enforcement Program for
FY24.
BACKGROUND
In FY23, the Dubuque Police Department has participated in the I -PLEDGE program in
partnership with the Iowa Alcoholic Beverages Division. The I -PLEDGE program is a
28E agreement in which the Dubuque Police Department conducts compliance checks
on retailers of tobacco, alternative nicotine and vapor products to confirm retailers are
not selling these products to persons under the legal age. In 2020, the State of Iowa
raised the legal age of purchase of these items from 18 to 21.
The agreement requires the Department to conduct at least one check of these retailers
per fiscal year. If a retailer is found to be out of compliance, the Department is required
to conduct at least one follow up check.
As part of the agreement, the State of Iowa will reimburse the Dubuque Police
Department $75 per compliance check.
Additionally, because a lot of the retailers that sell tobacco products also sell alcohol
products, the Department also conducts checks related to the underage sale of
alcoholic beverages. However, this is not part of I -PLEDGE 28E agreement.
CONCLUSION
1 of 3
The State of Iowa fiscal year year starts in October, However, the agreement is from
July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024. It should be noted, the Dubuque Police Department has
already been conducting checks within FY24.
ACTION REQUESTED
Review and approve the FY24 I -PLEDGE 28E agreement with the Iowa Alcoholic
Beverages Division.

Dear I -PLEDGE Partner,
Kim Reynolds Governor of Iowa
Adam Gregg Lieutenant Governor
Stephen Larson Administrator
The Iowa Deparhnent of Revenue (IDR) invites your department to participate in the I -PLEDGE Tobacco, Alternative
Nicotine and Vapor Product Enforcement Program for fiscal year 2024 (July 1, 2023 —June 30, 2024). The benefit of
a partnership between IDR and law enforcement agencies is evidenced by the 91 % statewide compliance rate obtained
by tobacco retailers in FY2023.
In order to be an I -PLEDGE partner in fiscal year 2024, you must sign and return the enclosed 28E Agreement. After
reviewing the agreement and verifying the contact information for your department, please sign the agreement on the
last page and return the entire agreement in the self-addressed envelope provided. A copy of the executed agreement
will be returned to your office along with an enforcement handbook,
It is important to remember that IDR is required to conduct one (1) compliance check of each tobacco, alternative
nicotine and vapor product retailer during FY2024, with a repeat check of any business that fails the first compliance
check. Section 5.1.2 of the 28E Agreement details the dates by which compliance checks need to be performed. Once
compliance checks are completed, it is imperative that your department electronically submit compliance check results
to IDR in a timely manner to ensure prompt payment to your department. hnstructions on how to electronically submit
compliance check results to IDR will be included in the enforcement handbook.
Keep in mind that alternative nicotine and vapor products are age -restricted according to Iowa Code § 453A.2, and
therefore included as part of the I -PLEDGE program. Attempts to purchase alternative nicotine and vapor products
may be conducted at any retailer that sells these products. Additional details regarding these age -restricted products
will be included in the enforcement handbook.
On June 29, 2020, Governor Reynolds signed legislation which increased the state minimum age to purchase tobacco,
alternative nicotine and vapor products fi-orrt 18 to 21 years. State of Iowa law is reflective of the federal minimum
age to purchase which was raised on December 20, 2019. Due to this law change, underage purchasers from the age
of sixteen to twenty years old may be utilized in the program. If utilizing multiple underage purchasers to perform
compliance checks, please ensure that a representative mix of 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20 year old underage purchasers are
used when feasible.
The necessary materials to carry out the agreement will be sent to the contact person specified in Section 12.10 of the
28E Agreement. In the meantime, feel free to contact 515.281.7434 or is ledge iowaabd.com with questions
regarding the enclosed agreement.
Sincerely,
