WESTLAKE IGNORES PUBLIC

Re: your June 28 article, "Westlake orders pot shop to close":

Proposition 215 passed in Ventura County with a 52 percent majority
and, undoubtedly, it has more support today.

The strong public support for medical marijuana makes the hard-line
attitudes of the Westlake Village City Council against
medical-marijuana dispensaries difficult to understand. It appears
that the council is allowing minority anti-marijuana voices in the
community to overrule the will of the public.

Anyone who upholds this lunacy does not deserve to hold public
office.
