Another CO Town Bans Marijuana Clubs
"Temporary" move until the town decides how to handle legalization
STEAMBOAT SPRINGS —Steamboat Springs has joined a growing list of municipalities in Colorado that have adopted emergency ordinances temporarily banning the establishment of private marijuana clubs.
Tuesday night's Steamboat Springs City Council passage of an emergency moratorium will prevent the formation of any marijuana clubs within city limits until the council has a chance to start crafting a more permanent ordinance regulating all facets of Amendment 64, which legalized the consumption of marijuana in the state for adults 21 and older.
Whether the city plans to ban private pot clubs permanently won't be clear until officials and the community have the chance to discuss it in detail.
