Calling all Cannabis Advocates, Social Equity Applicants & Owners, Entrepreneurs, and Licensees- to tell the City of Los Angeles to rescind (CF #21-1083) due to its negative unintended consequences to DCR Licensees. Sign this petition to help us bring 200 signatures to the LA City PLUM Committee asking to rescind CF 21-1083.
THE ISSUE: Los Angeles City Council File #21-1083 is the original motion & it contains provisions that remove important safeguards pertaining to licensed cannabis ownership disclosure. While we are grateful that the motion has prompted bold action from the DCR - we are clear the City Council members of the PLUM Committee need to know, we the people demand comprehensive social equity reform in Los Angeles and DCR delivered in its 37-page report.https://cannabis.lacity.org/sites/g/files/wph1726/files/2021-10/FINAL%20REPORT%20-%20DCR%20Response%20%20CF%2021-1083.pdf
THE ASK: LA City Council PLUM Committee, please adopt a new motion, based solely on the policy recommendations proposed by the Department of Cannabis Regulation (DCR). The DCR Recommendations address and continue to advance social equity in Los Angeles. For example "the refiling process,"; "the aggregation of equity ownership shares,"; "predatory practices," "modifications and expands definitions of Ownership." The original proposal made by City Council PLUM Committee is not the answer. It lacks the details and insight only DCR could provide and it demonstrates the experience and knowledge gained by the DCR Leadership since 2018. SUPPORT the DCR's recommendations AND RESCIND THE ORIGINAL PLUM MOTION CF #21-1083.
