Letter To The Editor Urging Yes On Measure B ~ By Vicky Reinke
Angels Camp, CA...It is important to understand who we are dealing with when it comes to the marijuana industry. They are an all cash huge profit business with large amounts of money and will stop at nothing to get their way. They do not want the good citizens of Calaveras to have a chance to vote on whether or not to ban commercial marijuana activities. Measure B is set for a special all mail-in ballot election. Ballots are to go out the week of April 3rd to be returned to the county registrar by May 2nd This is going to be an opportunity for the people of Calaveras to vote on whether they support a ban on all commercial marijuana activities in Calaveras County, with the exception of personal grows.
This is the second attempt by the community to put a ban proposal on the ballot. The first petition to ban was denied because of a technicality in the petition itself, so the voters were denied their vote at that time. Now, a second attempt has been successful to get the ban proposal on the ballot for May 2nd, so the voters have an opportunity to vote as to whether they want to ban commercial marijuana activities in our county.
But wait!!! The pro-marijuana group is attempting to stop this initiative from going to the ballot through lawsuits. On February 22, 2017 a Writ of Mandate was filed by Robert Bowerman a local marijuana advocate stating that the ballot arguments were untrue. On March 2, 2017 another lawsuit was filed by Calaveras Naturals, a marijuana dispensary, this time to sue the Board of Supervisors to remove Measure B from the ballot because of a procedural error in its wording. Really?!!
Don’t be fooled, this is a tactic used to stall or stop the process and intimidate the people. Don’t fall for this nonsense. Keep this kind of industry out of our county…nothing good will come from it! These types of tactics will only continue and get worse.
Please, Vote Yes on Measure B
Vicky Reinke
