Subject: EXTERNAL NO to Retail Marijuana
I saw in the upcoming work session there will be discussion of zoning for marijuana retail shops within the city. I would
urge all of you to strongly vote to keep "pot shops" out of our city. I have watched the marijuana legalization effort over the
past year and noticed most of those who loudly support it stand to benefit financially. I know the will of the voters must be
respected but that doesn't mean we need pot shops on every corner. I'm sure most of you have visited small towns in WA
and OR and have seen numerous pot shops within one or two blocks with their giant green marijuana leaf signs. I do not
believe this is right for Kalispell.
To the people who wish to purchase marijuana there will be many options in unincorporated Flathead County.
