Moratorium on Medical Marijuana dispensaries about to expire


From the city's backup and on tonight's Agenda:

On March 21, 2017, the City Commission adopted Ordinance No. 2017-05 to establish a moratorium on applications, confirmation letters, business licenses, development orders and permits involving uses relating to medical marijuana. This moratorium went into effect on March 31, 2017 and will expire on March 31, 2018.

The City doesn't want to get caught with its pants down again so they say that "Due to issues that have arisen regarding the appropriateness and regulation of such uses and the possibility of further regulations being imposed by the State, a moratorium extension is provided herein to allow the City more time to study the issues and bring their resolution back to the Commission for consideration."

The City is asking for a six month extension.

    Oh bull. The powers that be in this city had this plan in the works for over three years.Including the downtown biz owner that went to federal prison on drug related charges,a disgraced sex crazy ex member of the Democratic state of Florida legislature, the Commissioner who's knick-nack shop will be moving soon and other city heads. A cash only biz-bees to honey.

  3. As bad as things are, that we, in this country would legalize another drug, speaks volumes about the kind of people we have become.
    I guess people are so stressed out, that the only way they can cope is to be stoned.
