This link is the most current I have seen regarding cultivation a policies and regulations statewide:
http://www.canorml.org/medical-marijuana/local-growing-limits-in-California

Currently Butte County's cultivation regulations are under change, there is a vote in November. That vote can make or break outdoor cannabis cultivation in Butte county.

Wait until the third week of November to make major considerations or decisions.

Butte County
On March 14, 2014, a coalition of activists includingSave Butte Growers Rights turned in 12,262 signatures on a measure to repeal their county's new restrictive growing ordinance. Read more. The supervisors voted during their meeting on April 24, 2014, to put the referendum before voters on November 4, 2014, where it will be Measure A.

On May 7, over 10,000 sigantures were turned in on a better cultivation initiative for Butte County, which will be on the ballot as Measure B. Read more.

Save Butte Growers Rights meets Mondays at 4PM in Chico. Contact: 530-895-9902. They are also working towards an initiative. A PAC, Butte County Citizens Against Irresponsible Government,Email for more info and download their brochure.

BACKGROUND: On January 14, 2014, Butte County supervisors unanimously voted to limit marijuana gardens not by the number of plants but by square footage.Read more.

On December 10, 2013 Butte county supervisors passed three amendments to their medical marijuana cultivation ordinance. Two require each lot with a marijuana garden to have an occupied residence with water and sewage, all with proper permits. The third amendment increased the civil penalties for violations of the ordinance to $500 per day for the first violation and $1,000 a day for each subsequent violation. Read more.

On November 12, 2013, the supervisors tightened their marijuana cultivation ordinance. One of the amendments requires that the official grower of a medicinal garden must live on the property in a legal residence with all the county-required permits in place.Read more.

In June 2012, patient advocates won an important victory in Butte County, where voters rejected Measure A, which would have sharply restricted patients' right to cultivate on their own property, by 55%-45. However,Butte Supervisors then moved to enact an outdoor cultivation ban similar to Kings County, but scrappedthe proposed ordinance after DA Mike Ramsey objectedto it. Butte County Chief Administrative Officer Paul Hahn was instructed to work on a plan to establish an ad hoc committee on cannabis cultivation in Butte to develop a new proposal.

On February 26, 2013, a new ordinance was enacted, allowing up to 99 plants, but putting unprecedented and highly questionable residency restrictions on patients and landowners. Read more.

Not exactly true... I can have 99 plants now and 99 plants if the county wins on measure A... If the drug dealers win on measure B, then I will be reduced to 6 plants. All of my buddies are voting YES on A. Sorry, but the drug dealers fucked you all because they designed measure B to fuck the personal medical grower and empower themselves to grow commercial weed so you HAVE TO PAY FOR IT.

..fuck that.. Sorry guys, measure A will win.




Edit, let me explain how the drug dealers are fucking you.. If you have 1.4 acres or less, the drug dealers want you to have a LIMIT of 6 plants TOTAL.. The county with a YES vote on measure A will let you have 99 plants, 120sqft indoor + (Outdoor determined by yard size). Dude.... the county will let you grow 99 plants with a YES on measure A.. If you all vote for the drug dealers on measure B, ONLY PEOPLE WITH 40+ acres can grow 99 plants.

Measure B will LOSE, it was designed by the drug dealers to prevent the honest medical grower from growing their own medicine. Measure B is only useful if you own more than 5 acres of land, if you have 40 acres of land, they want you to be able to grow 99 plants. How many personal medical growers in Butte have 40+ acres of land? now, ask yourself, how many drug dealers have 40+ acres of land and want to convert that into a commercial pot farm while they are trying to take away your ability to grow your own medicine - ask yourselves that.
