On Fire Victim Family Tries to Forge Ahead

Next you will want to look at collecting vital information from the club owners, employees. Finger printing crosses the line in my personal opinion and increases the stress on the jail staff to "virtual book" someone or impacts another $expense to a potential job applicant. Ensure every staff member is either a caregiver or a patient them self to ensure their ability to interact with cannabis legally otherwise being physically present where cannabis exists and the person is not using Prop 215 justifiably as a defense is guilty of a crime from being in the presence of a "drug".

Collect Information on intended use, the opening plan from security plans (should meet with a law enforcement representative to ensure it works with local enforcement planning). This plan should also include storage plans for the medicine and a any cash on hand and video surveillance. More safety procedures and hardware will reduce the rate of crime.

Set costs for application and a yearly permit to maintain the added cost of "crime" if any , could also be a reduced cost of crime. Should also allocate for any special use permit administrative costs associated with any other special use permit process to ensure consistency among normal costing. Over estimating cost will again reduce the ability for a Legitimate dispensary to open doors and will keep more patients obtaining medicine on the "street" thus increasing illegal activity just for patients to maintain their doctors orders. Economically speaking you have steady demand and then AGAIN limited supply if you close a club. That JUMPS prices in other clubs and the street. Which makes it more "valuable" and attracts more criminal. The more "available through legal means" it is for patients the LESS crime you will have as the price and "street value" cannabis will have. Feel free to Verify that with SBCC Economics professors where I received my A.A.

Then set possession limits so everyone is clear on what the allowed limits are for possession of dried cannabis, concentrates, and how many plants your allowed within Goleta City limits PER patient. As some patients chose as a COLLECTIVE to grow together to reduce costs.

Then set an operating procedure for law enforcement to follow so that can safely and expediently verify the legitimacy of a patient 24/7 without having to breach patient/doctor confidentiality , or without having to speak with a representative from the doctor. For example $20 medical cannabis registry. Or something cost effective for all patients to be in compliance.
This will cut down on paperwork time and cost for law enforcement and will ensure the safety of patients acting within state law.

Well that's my $1.02 , I write the comment 20 times... mostly advice and opinion I think this time is was merely just to help get the ball rolling and to inform in more simple terms some of the problems and common pieces to other city ordinances.

On Goleta Temporarily Bans Medical Marijuana

Posted on June 8 at 1:28 a.m.

Heres some tips to getting an ordinance complete.

Determine your view and be prepared to stand by it as you are setting judicial president which requires consistency. Write a mission statement, such as we the council believe medical cannabis to be in need in Goleta and we hope that by giving guidance and setting boundaries(ordinance) we can "LIST GOALS HERE"

Find your objects of exposure(places to limit exposure). AKA Location
Only allow dispensaries outside a safety ring from schools. 500-1000 feet. --Pick a Number and Vote.

Maybe you want to keep a dispensary away from any government building or adjoining to any religious location unless said location waives the right. Some religions view Medical Cannabis as an acceptable remedy.
Any other safety zones... List(from citizens on open mic and counsel and panel members) and Vote on each.

Set Limits to Number and or density % among other businesses. (SB I think uses 1 dispensary for commercial block). They require it to be commercial since A) Yes the commercial area as to detour crime away from residential area NOT for raid but just for Burglary sake. Or sell a certain # of permits and only let those organizations operate a dispensary and then let them purchase the permit on the open market like hard liquor licenses for clubs/bars or dance permits.

Allow clubs employees to medicate at work as they are their long term, do not allow patients (following suit with 90% of the ordinances I have read) . Set hours of operation. 7 Days a week 9am-9pm is good operating hours. This limits the window of responsibility for Law Enforcement and also allows an ample time for patients with varying schedules to obtain their medication safely.

Interesting article. In my defense I would say this ; if you want to be in business you must follow trends.

I guarantee you these costumes are not selling in conservative areas. Beach towns, like Santa Barbara tend to be more skin friendly and with the influence of Hollywood and the sensationalism of modern CA I think that nothing else would sell to team,20's and anyone who can flaunt it.

World of magic for me as a child , was a fun place to shop for "cool" things as I thought, you are right it took a nose dive...

On Halloween for the Slutty Sort

Sounds like an evolutionary storage system. sort of like a family tree of evolutionary botany and biology.

Interesting concept, thought this had been done before through fossil records. I suppose examining a living organism may be more useful ; it could allow back breeding and cross breeding to sustain strong genetics for unstable species for the long run.

On UCSB Scientist Proposes New Type of Seed Bank

Posted on October 22 at 5:47 a.m.

So UCSB is now playing God? I think we should be the ones worrying about how to save ourselves first. By planning this the essential plants/animals will come with us.

Planning a smaller more direct eco system , which cuts out those dieing off simple organisms may be the solutions.

Only the strong will survive; evolution only happens when one journey ends and the next begins. Anyways, I dont want to give away all the secrets of the world.

On UCSB Biologists Address Mass Extinction

Posted on October 22 at 5:36 a.m.

Well Low density housing (mansions) are green friendly. Like you said low impact, part time residents. Sounds like the eco system wins to me. The land is well maintained by LOCAL landscapers and provides jobs while helping maintain the "higher desity housing residents" who populate and pollute your beauitful coastline.

Why dont you go yell at IV 's new developements for Grad Student housing, More students to pollute the area.. Thousands more people in SB versus 72 mansions * about 2 people per mansion= 144 people... which is less than building of which tens were built.

On Naples Approved 3-2

Posted on May 7 at 11:14 p.m.

Doreen Farr, how many google results does she have? Most of her results are because Dr. David Bearman is also mentioned.

When you go to the poles remember, who has taken the pressure of the world on his shoulders and followed through. Who is willing to be the voice of change , voice of reason and voice the voters?

Doreen Farr? Miss Hope Ranch Butterfly herself? or a man that lives in a community, not surrounded by high fences and guard dogs.

Maybe your opinion did not agree with his for the Water District. At least he had an opinion, with reasonable evidence and came to a reasonable conclusion. Hes held numerous political appointments and has a passion for what he believes in. Which if you do a google search you can see his passion for Goleta, and the Santa Barbara County as a whole. The 3rd district is where he feels his expertise is needed now.

I know I am voting Dr. Bearman. If you want to make the wrong decision go ahead. I would rather have someone who lives down the street from me, rather than someone who is distanced from the people.

On Reefer Madness

Posted on December 3 at 4:28 a.m.

Well I must say , Doreen Farr has a long way to go if she wants to win this election. As of the second of December a new candidates kick-off party went well. Unlike his opponents, hes has been a real resident of the area for over 30 years. Hes not a vacationer or "winter/summer" house owner. Hes not nestled in home ranch. He is real and I think he had a good chance. Finally an honest candidate who has previous political experience.

When I find out his website , I will post it on here.
