The ordinance is a de facto ban on Medical Marijuana (MMJ) in Fresno County.

The ordinance is poorly written and is a bad place to start negotiating. The MMJ community had no input in this ordinance, so our needs have not been adequately represented. It is a health and safety issue for many patients and others are precluded from growing what they need. 

The ordinance also prohibits plant cultivation in the face of a memo from the  Attorney Generel for the State of California issued in 2008 advising a 6-12 plant limit, and ignores provisions in both SB 420 and SB 215.

The original document has no redeeming value and should be scrapped completely.

Stop the ordinance to ban MMJ dispensaries/collectives

Greetings,

I just signed the following petition addressed to: The Fresno County Board of Supervisors.

The ordinance is a de facto ban on MMJ in Fresno County.

The ordinance is poorly written and is a bad place to start negotiating. The MMJ community had no input in this ordinance, so our needs have not been adequately represented. It is a health and safety issue for many patients and others are precluded from growing what they need.

The ordinance also prohibits plant cultivation in the face of a memo from the Attorney Generel for the State of California issued in 2008 advising a 6-12 plant limit, and ignores provisions in both SB 420 and SB 215.

The original document has no redeeming value and should be scrapped completely.

This petition will remain open until change if affected.

Sincerely,

[Your name]
