I live in michigan and rent a building for my primary business! I use the building and so does my friends business! We both have are cards and have 5 patiients each! We have lots of space left over in the building and wondering how to go about using the extra space for 2 seperate operations without raising any flags! The fire inspector comes once a year for reg check ups!

I am wondering if anyone has advice on...this??
The building has a front door 3 offices and a wharehouse its 1500 square feet!
We want to set it up with 2 areas 72 plants per site in different stages for a continous grow! How do you set it up...can you set it up...do i have to see what the city says...is there a way to go about it....do you ask the lanlord...he never comes around...we have a 2 yr lease! Also if fire inspector comes...how do you go about it...if its all set up legit with all the correct electrical...set up properly...extinguishers...smoke detecters...and exit signs...locks...signs and all the legit things goin on is it worth it??We want to go by the law...if something goes down...but still try to keep it low key for obvious reasons??Help!

I'm assuming you have a card and you are a patient. Your alrready growing 72 so just do it just make sure all electrical is up to code. If they ask tell them two other people are growing there as well to try to lower tge costs to be able to better serve your patients.

What County?

If you have a fire inspector coming by that might be a problem. Aside from that, I would keep it below 99 in case the Feds come and want to charge the two of you each with the full deal.

The bottom line in MI is this. If you are charged, you must prove that you are only producing the amount allowed by law and only receiving "reasonable compensation" from your 5 people. Since you already have the space for your business, you should be OK. Were you to obtain a building solely for growing, such a defense would be nearly impossible to pull off. If you keep it small and don't go crazy you should be alright. However, should the LL find out he will probably evict you. Electricity shouldn't be a problem in a commercial building - just keep it under your hat.

Oh, and if you are in Oakland County, it would be best to keep it super small. If you get caught in OC, they are not going to give a shit about your card or your rights. They will prosecute and you will be on very thin ice. Best not even fuck around in OC.

PS. What is with all the exclamation points?

I thought US Supreme Court made judgement not to charge anyone for excess amounts as they found it UNCONSTITIONAL to limit the number of plants as long as you have a medical license in LEGAL providences?;-)

Where did you hear that? MI limits what you can have in several ways.

It was recently on the news, I believe it took affect on Jan 31 2010!
The state can limit you to whatever they want I suppose but as far as it going to a federal case, they have given up on that! ;-)

But if your importing the shit then your talking different terms of abuse!
Just stay solid and grow in your medical state and keep on growing bro!:bigjoint:
