Medical Marijuana Dispensaries


In an article on the front page of the Palm Beach Post today, "Medical Pot shops one step closer one thing became obvious to me--I doubt that Lake Worth will ever discourage any legal business. As long as Lake Worth can get taxes, all is cool. Lake Worth will be attracting folks from other cities to visit us. Pot heads from all over will descend upon our city.  I don't think this is the type of "tourism" most of us have in mind.

What the article revealed is:
  1. 3 cities have banned medical marijuana dispensaries
  2. Boynton Beach on a 3/2 vote is allowing them under the State guidelines
  3. 11 cities are considering a ban
  4. 7 cities are considering regulations. Lake Worth falls into category number 4, however regulations here would be the same as for pharmacies.
My fear is that these dispensaries will pop up in Lake Worth like the Sober Home epidemic and we know what sort of problems they have caused.

This Commission did not protect us from these drug shops. Maybe they are drooling at the prospect of all that cash flowing around unreported.Who really needs T-reports ,right?
