CURBS URGED ON POT DISPENSARIES

The Los Angeles city attorney is calling on the City Council to
implement a "gentle ban" on marijuana dispensaries that would forbid
businesses from selling the drug - but still allow patients who are
seriously ill and their caregivers to cultivate it.

At a council committee meeting on Friday, City Atty. Carmen Trutanich
and several of his top lawyers recommended that officials revoke the
current ordinance regulating marijuana dispensaries, which calls for
a lottery to choose which dispensaries to allow.

Under Trutanich's proposal, the city would not prosecute ill patients
or their caregivers who were growing marijuana, as long as there was
no third party involved and no money was changing hands.
