Mayor: We Could Revisit Marijuana Ban

Mayor Jeff Ira explains the city council’s decision Monday to ban marijuana dispensaries.

The federal government went on a strict offense Friday by declaring that all medical marijuana facilities were subject to government seizure. Because of this announcement, the city council believed that this legal issue trumped all other staff reports and planning commission vote that .

The council ultimately indefinitely.

Questions for Mayor Ira:

  • What was the basis for the council's decision Monday night to ban marijuana dispensaries?
  • How long is the ban for?
  • Can the city re-visit this issue again in the future?
  • Why do you think the federal government went on such a harsh offense?
