Rules Still Unsettled As Legal Pot Approaches

Wikimedia/JPR titling

The countdown is on to legal marijuana in Oregon.  Legal pot for PERSONAL use, that is. 

It becomes legal on July 1st, thanks to voter passage of Measure 91 last November. 

Somebody's got to craft rules under the law, and that is the domain of the OLCC, Oregon Liquor Control Commission. 

Brent Kenyon of Southern Oregon Alternative Medicine in Ashland is a member of a committee advising OLCC.  He joins us with word of his views and the advising process. 

Grants Pass City Council Member Mark Gatlin also visits, with news of marijuana-related business the council is considering.
