Placerville extends urgency marijuana ordinance
By Mark Studyvin, Mountain Democrat
The Placerville City Council unanimously adopted a resolution to extend creating an urgency ordinance for marijuana at its Tuesday night meeting.
Up for debate was the topic of regulating cannabis cultivation and prohibiting the manufacture, processing, laboratory testing, labeling, storing and wholesale and retail distribution.
The urgency ordinance was originally extended in December of last year. California government code allows for these extensions. This would be the final extension and is good for up to one year. The current extension expiration is Oct. 28.
