: Legal Pad | LACity council committee may no longer bogart the loophole
By Richard Binder
Two years ago, the Los Angeles City Council approved a temporary moratorium on new
medical marijuana dispensaries. The purpose of the interim ordinance, which
will expire on Sept. 14, was to give city leaders time to draft regulations
that limit where and how dispensaries can operate in Los Angeles. Today a committee will
consider eliminating a loophole that would allow nearly 500 medical marijuana
dispensaries to operate despite the temporary ban.
The loophole allowed clinics to file "hardship exemptions," which provide dispensary owners with the opportunity
to defend why they should continue to do business without fulfilling those
requirements. Hardship exemptions are considered to be a routine part of city
ordinances.
