Wow, Al has an opinion, a lot of speculation and fear too. I read the whole thing and what I could not find was factual information supporting his theory, which is actually an unsupported opinion.
Loosely strug together dog whisles with no factual content, sound familiar?
The crime is so crazy around those Grover Beach places, that they are about to be the largest contributor to local sales tax. Thank god none of that hugely criminal yet beneficial tax review came from Nipomo. If it wasnt for the efforts of the board majority, like minded Sheriff, Code Enforcement chief and a small group of Nipomo residents the county would have had to deal with a huge influx of crime money. Sure most money is good but some of those dollars belonged to rapists and murderers. What happens when you mix money? Yah I think you know. So thank god none of those crime ridden businesses ever come to the unincorporated area of SLO country. We only want safe prescription drugs like oxycontin and safe clean alcohol! There is no crime associated with those things, but add the devils cabage and its MS13 Isis caravans of rapist murders money everywhere, just like Grover Beach! Please SLO over regulate, there is a hard working subterranean market that wants to stay tax exempt. Stop the bad money! No new taxes on alternative markets!
Call it what it is, Good job Heidi!

Re: “The good fight”
As a former Liquor store owner, when given the opportunity to get into the cannabis industry, my answer was NO! Its a shame that the regulations are in no way relative to like businesses. The massive amount of stigma and false equivalency has led the cannabis industry down a rabit hole of unnecessary regulation. A truer equivalence in regulation would see business licenses and regulations at a level somewhere between Right-Aid and 7-11. Cannabis is so much more benign than any prescription or alcohol product being sold without security, special zoning, or oversight, all over SLO. Hypocrisy is a poor practice especially for legislators.
