Dear Supervisors,
I read the new ordinance, and support it 100%. In fact E feel that there are some issues that still need to be addressed
and added to the ordinance before it is voted on, just to clear up same possible loopholes in the future.
'I) In the new proposed ordinance it says that you must live in Butte county, which would eliminate slot of the co-ops. !
agree with this except I think that many of these people will then get PO Boxes, or add their name on to the address of
the property in which they want to grow. The property owners that allow people to use their addresses, will be more than
happy to allow it, due to the money they will charge them to do so. (More money under the table AND NOT TAXED).
It kind of goes along with the land owners that RENT their land FOR CASH, to growers. No, they don't make their money
growing pot, but they make their money renting their land, ALOT OF MONEY, untaxed, and not claimed.
I feel there should be a clause that, RENTED land or any residential property that is rented, of any size, may not be used
for growing.
2) Selling marijuana is illegal. Nobody needs 6, 12, 24 plants for any reason, if it is used just for the person with the
medical marijuana card. The plants that are grown, nowdays, yield so much that 2-3 plants a year would be more than
plenty. By allowing extra plants to be grown, encourages people to sell it illegally. If they don't have so much they would
keep it and not sell it. I think you should lower the amount that anyone can grow.
3) This is supposed to be a perscription drug. With oversight by a legitimate doctor. Therefore the perscriptions should
read ??quantity per day, taken 2-3 times in 24 hours etc_ gust like any drug. It should not be an UNLIMITED DRUG.
Example: The doctor gives you a perscription for Vicodin, take one tablet once a day for 30 days. If you take them all in
two days, you cannot get more. The doctors should be forced to write their perscriptions differently, clearly, so that the
law enforcement authorites could easily spot that the grower has too much pat than perscribed, and take the appropriate
action.
4) Money. The amount charged to grow, should be increased. Like any medication or drug, it is expensive. There
needs to be enough money to cover, law enforcment etc..
5) l think that every plant SHOULD be ziptied and tagged with a number, that is registered with Butte county. This wip
eliminate any question for the law enforcement authorities, or justice system so cases can be prosecuted on the fast
track and not hold up the system. The tags can be handed out when people register and pay their fees, once per year, at
the County buildings. Also, upon paying their fees, they should also sign an open legal aggreement with the county that
their property, inside and out, may be inspected at anytime, by any office or law inforcment representative, which will
eliminate any search warrent, again putting things an the fast track.

6) Minors. NO POT should be allowed to be grown, smoked, or stared on any property, no matter what size, where a
minor resides. (Under '18), If you need it that bad. BUY 1T from a facility. It should be written into the ordinance. If your
caught, your kids get taken away and your have 5 years in jail. DONE. Again fast track, don't waste the taxpayers
money, just enforce it.
7} Garbage. Upon inspection of you property and their is garbage alf aver. Chemicals, etc... that can leach into the
enviroment. Pull their card, NEVER again allowed to grow pot. On the spot. Done
No this is not taking away their rights, or anything else these growers are trying to claim. Like any DRUG, and Marijuana
is as drug, it needs to be under tight control, and my ideas are alot less lienent than me trying to get my allergy medicene
from a pharmacy.
I will not be able to make the May 4th meeting, due to my mom's surgery at Stanford, but I will back all of this as welt as
tighter conditions, if necessary.
