THE ILL HAVE A LEGITIMATE NEED FOR MARIJUANA

Too many people who legitimately use medical marijuana in our county 
are suffering due to the draconian ordinance put forth by our county 
supervisors.

For many patients, medical marijuana is the only medicine that works 
for their medical conditions. We the people have an opportunity to 
amend the ordinance to be similar to Yuba County. Please sign the 
petition to put on the ballot a more realistic ordinance that will 
allow the voters of Nevada County to permit medical marijuana 
patients to grow their own medicine and still be respectful of their neighbors.

Our supervisors have the option of approving the ordinance as Yuba 
County did and avoid the cost of a special election. Feel free to let 
your supervisor know that it is in the best financial interest of the 
county to accept the revised version.

Please help those who need medicine and cannot afford to pay for it. 
Not to mention, a person would need to drive to some large city to 
find even a dispensary to buy from. Please sign the petition. Thank you.
