VALLEJO CITY COUNCIL APPROVES ORDINANCE TO STOP COLLECTING MMD TAXES
The Vallejo City Council Tuesday night swiftly approved an ordinance
supporting a January decision to stop collecting taxes from medical
marijuana dispensaries operating in Vallejo.
In a 5-1 vote, with Councilmember Robert McConnell opposed and Mayor
Osby Davis absent, the council adopted the resolution which prevents
the city from collecting Measure C taxes until October 20, 2015 or
until a regulatory scheme regarding MMDs in the city is approved.
In 2011, around 76 percent of city voters approved Measure C, which
imposes a business license tax rate of 10 percent on the sale of
medical marijuana products within the city.
