“'Any place in which we allow a doctor’s or dentist’s office, we should allow a medical marijuana dispensary,' McGovern said." If that argument has any validity why not sell this "medicine" in all pharmacies in the city? Must be something different about this "medicine."
"Councilor Jan Devereux said it was an unfortunate occurrence that the city had previously made geographic zoning for one set of circumstances." Does the freshman councilor believe there was no discussion before the zoning was voted on? Does she believe she has better knowledge than the entire previous council and the voters and taxpayers who commented? Does that indicate arrogance?
“'We have really failed voters and patients in not having a suitable zone for a way of accommodating these businesses,' Devereux said." See above comments which apply to this specious argument.
