§ 47-11. Purpose.  


Latest version.
  • In enacting this article, it is the intent of the city council of the City of Citrus Heights to protect the safety and welfare of the general public. The Federal Controlled Substances Act, 21 U.S.C. section 841, prohibits the possession, sale and distribution of marijuana, and the city council finds that sanctioning the establishment of non-medical marijuana businesses or allowing the delivery of non-medical marijuana within the City would be inconsistent with federal law. The purpose of this article is to prohibit commercial non-medical marijuana businesses from being opened or established in the city, and to prohibit non-medical marijuana deliveries from occurring in the city.
