CHICO, Calif. -- Medical marijuana advocates in Butte County will soon find out if the county's ordinance regulating growing and distribution will go before the voters.
Tomorrow the Board of Supervisors will discuss the ordinance passed last May.
Opponents of the ordinance successfully gathered enough signatures on a petition to keep the ordinance from going into effect.
Now the Board must either repeal the ordinance or put it on the ballot.
Citizens for Compassionate use, which circulated the petition, will be at the meeting with a proposal of their own.
"We're not against having an ordinance here in Butte County, just ordinance 4029," said Weston Mickey. "We're all just anticipating that they rescind. Hopefully they do, but if not it will be an uphill battle, but it is a battle we're willing to take on and we feel that we can win."
The Board will take up the ordinance at tomorrow's meeting at 1 p.m. in the Board of Supervisors Chambers in Oroville.
