Back in 2016, California voters finally made the landmark decision to legalize the little green plant for recreational use, but problems have continued to arise in cities and counties across our beautiful state. Over the past couple of months, delivery systems appear to have inserted themselves between the customer and the company. However, in recent days, this has completely reversed thanks to the efforts of the higher up. On Friday, December 7, 2018, California regulators have officially approved legal marijuana delivery systems across all portions of the state, even in locations that have completely banned the use of the little green plant. Needless to say, law enforcement officials are far from pleased on the matter, saying that government control has been worn away. Let’s take a closer look at this situation and find out more.
A Matter of Legal Issues
Overall, the manner of statewide delivery systems has been a huge subject of legal conversations among individuals working on the marijuana issues in Cali. Recently, this issue was included in a series of regulation drafts from the Bureau of Cannabis Control, which issues a majority of prints in retail. Unless the California Office of Administrative Law provides additional objections, these new rules about the pot delivery system will officially become permanent additions to the Golden State.
Under Proposition 64 (passed in 2016), statewide deliveries were completely allowed after reports about law enforcement officials making needless arrests in regions that completely prohibit the fragrant herb. In response to this new law, the California Police Chiefs Association, League of California Cities, and United Food and Commercial Workers Western States Council petitioned for the rule to be protested.
What About the Supporters?
According to individuals who support this new rule, this delivery system will provide opportunities for patients with severely debilitating illnesses to obtain their drugs without leaving home. Nevertheless, legal officials are still concerned about whether or not this system could create loopholes for black market pot dealers. However, according to Josh Drayton (spokesman for the California Cannabis Industry Association) explained that California has hit enough speed bumps with the little green plant as it is. By placing tighter restrictions on this delivery system, the people will be restricted, as well.
