The Los Angeles City Council today approved a six-month extension of the city's moratorium on new medical marijuana dispensaries, a move designed to provide time for city officials seeking to draft new regulations covering marijuana facilities.
The council voted 14-0 for the temporary ban, which was initially enacted in August 2007.
Councilman Dennis Zine said the moratorium would give the city attorney's office time to recommend a medical marijuana dispensary policy that would prevent abuses while still ensuring that such facilities are available to legitimate medical patients.
