In November 2016, the voters approved Proposition 64, which legalized recreational cannabis (marijuana). The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors has directed County departments to develop cannabis regulations for the County’s unincorporated areas.
The County is convening listening sessions throughout Los Angeles to hear suggestions and concerns from unincorporated communities on such issues as: Where can commercial cannabis businesses locate? What rules should these businesses follow? What strategies can help prevent youth from consuming cannabis (marijuana)? What strategies can enhance public safety?
These sessions are open to everyone. They will be conducted in a workshop style and facilitated to encourage honest and open dialogue about this important issue. Come share your thoughts!
