Snohomish: Council to discuss pot facilities
The Snohomish City Council is being asked if it should add a second six-month moratorium on pot dispensaries and marijuana gardens, or if city staff should start preparing legislation to regulate them.
The meeting is scheduled for 7 tonight, 1601 Ave. D.
The current moratorium expires on Jan. 14.
The council approved the moratorium as a response to a bill passed by the Legislature this spring that outlines a framework for how cities could deal with medical marijuana production and businesses.
