This week, RCRC First Vice Chair Rex Bohn (Humboldt) joined Paul A. Smith, RCRC Vice President Governmental Affairs, and Arthur Wylene, RCRC Governmental Affairs Counsel, in providing a cannabis licensing and regulatory update to the Merced County Board of Supervisors. 

RCRC staff discussed overall policy areas relating to commercial cannabis activities.  Following the presentation, the Merced County Board of Supervisors put forth initial discussions about revising its ordinances on cultivation and mobile cannabis deliveries. 

In July, RCRC presented to senior staff in Merced County on recent cannabis legislation.  RCRC will continue to assist rural counties in developing their respective policies in light of recently-enacted cannabis statues and regulations.
