MOUNTAIN VIEW DEVELOPING MEDICAL MARIJUANA ORDINANCE
The city of Mountain View is poised to take a hard line in its
governance of medical marijuana dispensaries.
At a study session tonight, the city council will discuss lifting a
citywide ban on pot clubs and replacing it with rules that are strict
in comparison to other jurisdictions. Coincidentally, the session
comes a day before city officials are scheduled to go to court to try
and shut down Buddy's Cannabis Collective, a dispensary that opened
in April despite the ban.
Deputy City Attorney Nicole Clemens wrote in a report to the council
that most cities limit dispensaries to sites that are at least 500 to
1,000 feet away from "sensitive uses," including schools, day cares
and churches. Clemens is recommending Mountain View err on the
restrictive side, only permitting pot clubs in locations that are at
least 1,000 feet from those uses as well as residences.
