AGENDA ITEMS <br /> 1. Proposed Ordinance Regarding Adult Use, Distribution, Cultivation, Manufacturing <br /> and Testing of Marijuana — Acting Executive Director Candida Neal, Planning & Building <br /> {Strategic Plan Goal No. 1, 1C} <br /> Members of Staff provided a PowerPoint presentation, providing details of the elements included <br /> in draft ordinance. Deputy City Manager Robert Cortez made note that the ordinance is specific <br /> to adult and commercial uses, and did not affect Measure BB. Assistant City Attorney Tamara <br /> Bogosian reviewed Proposition 64, and provided the staff's recommendation to allow and <br /> regulate medicinal, adult-use and commercial cannabis activities. <br /> Executive Director Candida Neal provided an overview of the draft ordinance, which was <br /> prepared based on Committee and community feedback. The draft ordinance would allow for <br /> both medicinal and adult-use cannabis, only in the industrial areas of the City, and would require <br /> additional uses to pay tax payments or fees. Additionally, Director Neal reviewed the limit for <br /> each type of cannabis license, as well as the permit process for each business, while suggesting a <br /> merit point system as a solution in determining licenses given. <br /> Treasury and Customer Services Manager Willard Holt provided an estimate for the amount of <br /> revenue generated with implementation of the ordinance, by specifying the revenue for each type <br /> of additional cannabis use, and comparing it to the amount necessary to fund enforcement. Code <br /> Enforcement Manager Alvaro Nunez discussed the Cannabis Enforcement Taskforce, and gave <br /> an overview of enforcement measures taken so far. <br /> Lastly, Robert Cortez explained the anticipated timeline to implement the ordinance. <br /> PUBLIC COMMENTS <br /> Peter Katz, suggests increased security measures at Eddie West Field and Main Place Mall, in <br /> light of the tragic event that took place in Las Vegas. Additionally, he asks that proper funding <br /> be allocated to the Police Department for enforcement of recreational marijuana use. <br /> Gil Salmon, resident of Ward 2, suggests that personal cultivation be made legal, which would <br /> allow the City to apply for grant funding of police enforcement and health services. Additionally, <br /> he shares his concern about sufficient law enforcement, after recapping recent illegal drug <br /> activity in his neighborhood. <br /> 2 <br />
