Medford voters to decide city ban on growing pot outdoors
MEDFORD, Ore. — Medford voters will decide whether city residents can grow marijuana outdoors.
The Medford Mail Tribune reports the council will send a measure to voters in November that would ban residents from growing marijuana outdoors.
It would also create an ordinance related to complaints about the smell of neighbors growing pot indoors.
Councilmembers are expected to send voters another measure, this one banning indoor and outdoor grow sites altogether within city limits.
The two councilmembers to vote against pursuing a complete ban noted the difficulty in indoor enforcement.
Medford police Lt. Kevin Walruff says the city received 30 complaints related to marijuana in a recent six-month period.
Officials said many complaints go unreported.
