Our colleagues at the Public Healh Institute have prepared several public comments on California's cannabis regulations that they have offered as models for others.  In addition to the comments themselves, Lynn Silver's transmittal email (below) sums up the current state of play in California pretty well.  The point about preempting local laws is particularly troubling as is the fact that BCC plans to run the research program rather than relying on an independent agency like UC.

Comment to California Department of Public Health, Bureau of Cannabis Control, Department of Food and Agriculture.
