SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO EXTENDS MEDICAL POT DISPENSARY
BAN
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO - A moratorium on the establishment of medical
marijuana dispensaries is being extended so city leaders have more
time to study and possibly draw up stricter rules for such operations.
"I support medical marijuana," City Councilmember Karyl Matsumoto
said, "but we don't want to become a mecca for marijuana collectives. If our neighbors ban these collectives, everyone will be coming to
South San Francisco."
On Wednesday night, Matsumoto and her council colleagues approved
extending the temporary ban another 10 months after they agreed in
late October on the original 45-day moratorium on issuing permits to
dispensaries.
