Mountain View could temporarily ban medical marijuana this week
MOUNTAIN VIEW -- The city of Mountain View is jumping into the medical marijuana debate tomorrow.
City council members will vote on whether to pass a 45-day moratorium on new medical marijuana dispensaries -- to give them more time to craft an ordinance regulating medical marijuana in Mountain View.
Dozens of dispensaries have opened up across Silicon Valley in the past six months -- all without the blessing of local government.
Gilroy, Los Gatos, Los Altos and Saratoga have passed temporary or permanent bans on dispensaries, which are stuck in a legal gray area, between state and federal law.
Mountain View says it's being forced to take the vote tomorrow -- after a handful of dispensaries took out applications to open in the city in recent months.
