Walnut Creek Bans "Pot Clubs"


I read this on Claycord.com. Posted by the Mayor on 8/18/09:

Today, at 8 o'clock this morning, the Walnut Creek City Council passed an emergency moratorium which bans medical marijuana dispensaries for the next 45-days.

This "emergency" action came after a group who calls themselves "C3 Collective" filed a request to create a dispensary at 1291 Oakland Boulevard. The group, which already operates a yoga and acupuncture center at the location, wanted to be able to add the sale of marijuana as an option to some of the patients they treat.

Councilman Bob Simmons was the only one on the council to vote against the emergency moratorium.

The City of Walnut Creek will address this issue once again during the council's regularly scheduled meeting on September 15th.
