Public use of marijuana to be debated in Nev.
By Colton Lochhead, Las Vegas Review-Journal
Marijuana is legal to possess in Nevada, but using it anywhere but inside of a private residence is a big no-no.
That is something the state’s most weed-friendly lawmaker wants to change.
State Sen. Tick Segerblom, D-Las Vegas, intends to introduce a bill this session, which begins Feb. 6, that would give governments at the city and county levels the authority to issue public marijuana-use permits for just about every possibility. Big events like the Electric Daisy Carnival, bars, hookah lounges or even designated pot-friendly streets or sidewalks would all be fair game if Segerblom’s bill were to pass.
