Four Charlevoix-area governmental bodies have scheduled a combined meeting for later this month to discuss how they will regulate medical marijuana businesses in their respective jurisdictions.
The Charlevoix City Council, Charlevoix Planning Commission, Charlevoix Township Board of Trustees and the Charlevoix Township Planning Commission have scheduled a combined meeting for 7 p.m. on Monday, Aug. 22, at the Charlevoix City Council chambers at city hall.
In a memo about the meeting to the city planning commission, city planning director Mike Spencer wrote, "The purpose of the meeting will be to discuss the new Michigan Medical Marijuana Act, and options local governments have concerning regulation of this use. The (city's) moratorium on medical marijuana is set to expire in October. We felt a joint meeting would be best to educate our boards and elected officials and seek input in a public setting prior to staff drafting any regulations."
In April the city council voted to extend a moratorium on medical marijuana businesses in the city for another six months to allow city leaders more time to draft regulating ordinances.
