Cannabis forum in King City draws good crowd

Over 30 people attended a Community Forum on Cannabis Tax Revenue at the King City Recreation Center on Wednesday night, March 28. The Forum was put on by the Monterey County Board of Supervisors. County Supervisor Simon Salinas was impressed with the turnout and said that the purpose of holding the forum was to talk about what they're going to do if they receive as much as over $7 million in cannabis tax revenue which was generated by the cannabis act, but indicated that the County has a $30 million deficit that they have to prepare for. County Supervisor Salinas was intrigued that the people in attendance feel that the County needs more mental health services, early childhood development programs and that there needs to be more law enforcement in the Lockwood community to help shutdown the illegal growth of cannabis in that area. Towards the end of the forum County Supervisor Salinas also encouraged people to talk with their city governments in King City, Greenfield and Gonzales to hold a forum similar to what the County Board of Supervisors did since all of those cities have cannabis cultivation going on.
