SCOTTSVILLE, Ky. – In Scottsville this week, the City Council passed the second and final vote on an ordinance banning the medical cannabis business from coming to their city.
The ban would cover all business licenses for cannabis production, including cultivation, processing and dispensing, with five “yes” votes and only one citizen voicing support, the vote has spurred little controversy, according to mayor David Burch.
Burch says, “We pride ourselves on a certain quality of life, a certain projection and an outward appearance, and I think that just wasn’t going to fit into the plan. I think that was the consensus.”
The mayor said he understands that medical cannabis may be helpful for some citizens, but he expects Bowling Green to have at least one dispensary to serve that need.
The Allen County Fiscal Court also approved the first reading of an ordinance banning the cannabis business throughout the county.
The second and final vote on that will be held Tuesday, June 25.
