Can a city authorize the use of vending machines in facilities that can be entered by minors?
No. The state law imposes a total prohibition on vending machines outside of adult-only facilities. That total prohibition is the floor. Cities can add restrictions, but cannot undo this prohibition. Nor can they permit the use of vending machines in locations where state law prohibits them—no matter how many protective measures are imposed or how well intentioned they may be.
