Why are town officials "curious" over the fact that they were not sure what permissions were required or procured? And more importantly, why is the Town Council waiting to see how other towns are handling this? Why can't our town leaders think for themselves? As a mother of three teenagers, keeping my ears and eyes wide open over the years, I have heard how ridiculously easy it is to get a medical marijuana card. I understand how it may help some people with serious diseases like cancer and arthritis, though not enough to warrant another pot store. Even if it is legal, is this what we want in Corte Madera? I am certain that the town has said no to other businesses it deems unacceptable. How did these slip by? Chris Domenici Corte Madera - --- MAP posted-by: Richard R Smith Jr
