MENDOCINO COUNTY ENCOURAGING MEDICAL MARIJUANA REGISTRATION PRIOR TO LICENSING

Mendocino County is encouraging those in the medical marijuana 
business to register with the county by June 3.

The county said it is simply "assessing the level of interest" prior 
to opening up applications for local permits. It also hopes to 
identify medical marijuana operations that were considered in good 
standing prior to the beginning of 2016, when the new Medical 
Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act became law.

Since the county intends to offer local permits, the law would 
require both a state and local permit by Jan. 1, 2018 for medical 
marijuana businesses.

Registering early will guarantee those eligible priority processing 
for local permit applications once they become available, according 
to the county.

Additional information, along with the local medical marijuana 
registration form, is available online at 
http://co.mendocino.ca.us/bos/mendoreg.htm.

For more information, contact  or the 
Mendocino County Department of Agriculture at 234-6830.
