So this typo the state fucked up for towns to draft their own rules governing medical MJ by March 16 i think. Anyway all the town's except one around me ended up banning personal mmj grows at their own residence. They stated that patients still had access through delivery services. They are also no dispensaries allowed in our county, just delivery.
To me nothing about regulating a personal mmj grow on their own property seems legal if the patient is in full compliance with state laws. It's a medical situation and I don't believe the city government has the authority to limit a patients access to their medication let alone be involved in the regulation of a medical law.
Just ranting and curious what peoples thoughts are.

    Don’t Make CA Patients and Caregivers Get Licenses The California legislature adopted the Medical Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act (MMRSA) last year. The bill will license and regulate commercial medical cannabis activity in the state, but it also contains a provision that affects patients and caregivers who cultivate their own medical cannabis. The MMRSA requires a state and local license for individual patients who cultivate more than 100 square feet of medical cannabis or for primary caregivers who cultivate medical cannabis in more than 500 square feet (for up to five patients). The licensing requirements apply, even if all of the cannabis is for the patient’s personal medical cannabis use and not for sale. This is an unreasonable and unnecessary burden for legal medical cannabis patients and caregivers. Licensing is likely to be expensive and complicated. Businesses and organizations that work in the field of medical cannabis can be expected to adapt, jump over bureaucratic hurdles, and pay for the cost of licensing. Individual patients and caregivers cannot. Sign this petition asking lawmakers to remove the licensing thresholds for patients and caregivers cultivating medical cannabis for personal use. Click here to read more about the need for a change in the MMRSA. -

    We call on the California Legislature and the Governor to support changes to the Medical Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act hat will remove the state and local licensing thresholds for individual patients and primary caregivers in Health and Safety Code 11362.777(g). That Section requires individual patients and caregivers to obtain state and local licensing if they cultivate more than 100 or 500 square feet of cannabis, respectively, for the personal use of the patient. These licensing thresholds are unnecessary and burdensome for legal patients and caregivers who do not sell medical cannabis. Patients and caregivers who cultivate medical cannabis for non-commercial purposes should not have to meet commercial licensing requirements or pay fees in order to exercise their rights to cultivate medical cannabis in accordance with the Compassionate Use Act (Proposition 215).

Bans and pending bans, if you don't want it banned, then you shd show up to the meetings. Most people are not aware or think someone else will show up, if you do not show up to your county meetings and there is a ban, it's your fault.

Mon has heard that the counties that did NOT pass bans, had more pro MMJ than not. If there is more anti mmj than pro mmj the bans pass easy.

Btw TWS, mon did sign it.

URGENT BAN WATCH UPDATE: There has been an enormous increase in cities and counties that have enacted or introduced a ban on either personal cultivation, commercial cultivation, processing, manufacturing, testing, dispensing, delivering, and even consumption in some instances, since our last post.

Please join me tonight at 8:00 PM PTfor a live online broadcast entitled “Protecting Access in Your Community.” I will be talking with you about how to stop and reverse local bans on medical cannabis cultivation, delivery, and dispensing. There will be a time for comments and questions from participants.

More than 100 cities and counties have banned medical cannabis in response to a drafting error in state law that would have made state regulators the sole licensing authority for commercial medical cannabis cultivation in jurisdictions that did not adopt local regulatory ordinances before March 1, 2016. That frightened local lawmakers, who feared losing regulatory authority in their communities.

Many cities and counties have responded to the inadvertent deadline by banning medical cannabis cultivation and other commercial activity. Unfortunately, some jurisdictions have overreached by also banning cultivation of medical cannabis by individual patients and their designated primary caregivers.

The state legislature is moving quickly to correct the error. AB 21 (Wood), which will delete the deadline, may be on its way to the Governor for a signature this week. The urgency bill takes effect as soon as the Governor signs it, giving local governments time to consider and adopt more reasonable medical cannabis ordinances.

Will they do it? That may depend on what they hear from constituents like you. ASA launched the Local Access Project to help support advocates who are working to stop bans or adopt sensible ordinances and voter initiatives. You can find helpful tools online right now, and more are on the way. Check out the webpages on writing a campaign plan, fundraising for you local effort, and resources for organizers before tonight’s broadcast.

I look forward to talking with you tonight. Please share this message with friends and loved ones who care about medical cannabis.

Sincerely,

Don Duncan, Americans for Safe Access
