The issue was unanimously tabled until at least July so council members could take time to study the issue.

Concerns were expressed about increasing crime in other towns related to the new industry, whether 200-foot buffers were too small, and whether council members would violate their oaths of office by approving an ordinance that doesn’t seem to comply with federal law.

The council had been scheduled to consider a text amendment to establish conditional-use permit criteria and performance standards for medical marijuana dispensaries in the WB-2 secondary business district, or casino district, and the WB-4 zone that includes a commercial strip of land near the Montana 40/Dillon Road intersection.

The council did, however, vote unanimously to extend for one year the emergency ordinance that bans medical marijuana businesses inside city limits.
