Newly re-elected County Commissioner David Moore was sworn in for a second term Tuesday morning, and newly elected commissioners Jeff Gold and Michelle Stone took their first oaths of office.
County Judge Jim McCune administered the oath for Moore. County Judge Sarah Ritterhoff Williams presided over the other two.
Later in the meeting, the commission unanimously approved a 180-day moratorium on medical marijuana dispensing facilities. The delay gives county government a chance to establish zoning and land-use regulations to accommodate the facilities.
Florida voters last week overwhelming approved Amendment 2, legalizing medical marijuana. The law goes into effect Jan. 3. "Our departments already are working on it," County Commissioner Kathy Bryant said. The delay might not even take 180 days, she said, but the county needs time to prepare.
