Public comments about
the Liquor Control Board's Initial Draft Rules for implementing Initiative 502
were due yesterday.
WASAVP submitted comments to the Board highlighting
the need to strengthen public health and safety provisions.
The ACLU also submitted two sets of comments -- one set in
collaboration with a group of prevention, intervention, treatment, and child
advocacy organizations and individuals and one set in collaboration with a
group of organizations representing minority communities.
The Seattle P-I posted comments from Seattle
City Attorney Pete Holmes who campaigned for I-502. The Washington State
Cannabis Wire posted comments from a
marijuana business group.
The Board will now
