San Diego County considerieng new fees for dispensaries -

Was just watching the "news" and they mentioned that the county of San Diego (yes, the same the spent millions challenging Prop 215) is considering a new strategy. They are looking at a dispensary licensing scheme that would cost $11K. A dispensary will also have to be approved by some sort of council before being allowed to open their doors. Also mentioned was law enforcement oversight.

I can see it now, they will simply not approve any of the applications. This is the easiest way to get around the defeats they suffered in the hands of the courts in ALL of their challenges.

Yeah, I've been wrangling with those assholes for many years. They lie really well, and if their mouth is open, they're lying.

The ordinance that they already adopted is a de facto ban on dispensaries. There will be none because of the ordinance. This amendment was made to ban all deliveries of MMJ as well, besides the large registration fee. That is there just so they can say that there is an ordinance for them, but no one wants to participate. The good thing is that this is only in the unincorporated areas of San Diego County.

The City of San Diego is about to vote on an ordinance of their own that will be a little better, but not much.

Feeling for you potroast. I do not buy any meds as I am able to produce my own, but for the majority that cannot grow this is just plain rotten. Think maybe Norml and ASA can get some sort of suit brought against it? SDC has shown that they are very good at losing in court and it would be easy to prove their intention I would think, given the history.
