Overcoming A Ban & Regulating Cannabis In Nevada County

In 2016, the fate of the Nevada County Cannabis industry was held in a ballot initiative to ban all commercial cannabis activity in the county. A group of dedicated activists worked to defeat the ban and, alongside a coalition of community organizations,  usher in reasonable regulations. This process allowed the legacy cannabis cultivators of Nevada County to attain state cannabis licenses.  This presentation will highlight the impacts, challenges, opportunities and present day outlook for regulations in Nevada County.
