The San Diego City Council voted 6-3 Monday on an option for regulating marijuana use in San Diego, now that it is legal.
Council members chose between two options. The first would have allowed testing of marijuana and marijuana products in labs in industrial and commercial zones that prohibit residential use.
The second option, which passed, will allow testing plus cultivation, distribution and production of marijuana with a permit. The activities will be allowed in light and heavy industrial zones.
San Diego Police Chief Shelley Zimmerman urged the council to enforce option one with the strictest of controls. The Chief cited the 11 current dispensaries as a public safety concern.
"We've fielded 273 radio calls from those establishments so far this year, everything from violent robberies to a shooting and those calls will increase," Zimmerman said.
