The Palm Springs City Council met last night to decide which two collectives would be permitted to sell medicinal marijuana under the city's new Medicinal Cannabis ordinance. After over 45 minutes, the Council voted to rewrite the ordinance, stalling the vote until January.
It began as a discussion over where the co-ops could be located. It then turned into whether or not they could receive money from patients for the medical marijuana. A true cooperative means members as a whole grow and cultivate the marijuana. A dispensary would allow the owners of the location to grow, cultivate and sell the marijuana to patients. The City's Attorney Douglas Holland says, "The idea that someone with a card can go in and buy medical marijuana may not be consistent with the law". He goes on to say the City Council instructed him to write the ordinance according to the California Attorney General's standards. Councilwoman Ginny Foat disagrees with the City's Attorney saying, "That was his opinion of what he'd like to see, that's not what the ordinance says." It's unclear what changes will be made to the ordinance when the Council takes up the issue after the beginning of the new year. In the meantime, since the Council did not award the two permits, selling medicinal marijuana in the city of Palm Springs remains illegal. The four dispensaries still on the list include: CannaHelp 505 Industrial Place CAPS Apothecary 4050 Airport Center Drive Desert Organic Solution 19437 Newhall Road Herbal Solutions 4765 Ramon Road http://www.420magazine.com/forums/in...pot-shops.html |
