Seimasko and the Newburyport Police Department need to start focusing on the real crimes. I do not know why they are focusing on a non-issue! Over 7,000 voters of Newburyport voted for Question 2. Why would creating bylaws and fines that would further increase the civil $100 fine for marijuana make any sense when us voters of Newburyport made it clear what we thought.
