5 things you won’t see in Florida’s medical marijuana regulations
08/04/2014

The things you won't see in the law are:

  • Suggestions on addressing the local zoning regulations. “We can’t fix local zoning, so that has to be negotiated at the local level,” Tschetter said.
  • Suggestions that pharmacists should be a part of the bill.
  • Certain recommendations on business practices, such as requiring that the business can’t be sold for two years, that they have in-state partners, that they have certain kinds of insurance. Those ideas aren't in the law itself, drive up cost and could delay implementation,Tschetter said.
  • What medical conditions should qualify for the use of medical marijuana. That’s defined in the law.
  • The legal status of the source material. “Once it's here it’s legal,” Tschetter said.
