East Lansing, MI – East Lansing is considering three separate ordinances regarding medical marijuana.
Voters approved legalizing medical marijuana last year. Since then, municipalities have been struggling with the best ways to regulate the sale and trade of marijuana for medicinal use.
East Lansing city councilmember Nathan Triplett says last night's hearing was helpful in crafting the city's future policy.
"These issues aren't easy, and the way that the state law was drafted don't make them any easier for us," Triplett said. "It'll be the first of many discussions."
City officials hope to have an ordinance in place by the end of the year.
