Economic draft. Those in low economic communiti communities clammer through sweat, tears, the blood of our nations enemies and blood of american heros. I invite you to allow the emerging cannibis community to empower an overlooked community, my ask is to expand to military veterans. Perhaps underserved veterans that receive less than Honorable Discharge for cannibis use could meet your standards for inclusion. Combat veterans are only 10 of the community. Perhaps they will earn your consideration. Thank you next speaker. Good morning. My name is shane. I want to thank you guys for listening to everybody before me and everybody after me. I want to talk about the Compassion Program. I want you to keep it in the state and make sure its safe for everybody. Im a poor patient and i would like to see the task force maybe have patients in there as well. Keeping room for everybody. And thank you for listening to me. Thank you.

My last request is that please do not overregulate cannibis. This is a new industry, we it needs to be managed but it also needs to be managed in a responsible way and overregulation will damage it and could kill it. Thank you so much.

A Community Center in this city is desperately needed where all of us, all different ethnic groups and parts of the medical cannibis community can come together for events and just have Harm Reduction groups and things like that. These lounges are great idea but thats just what they are, lounges. Medical cannibis patients need healing

We can make it for tomorrow but giving requiring the director to provide shall sorry, hold on. I have cut supervisor sheehy off several times. Go ahead. Thank you, i appreciate that. I just think when we start getting away in the weeds no pun intended, we may create unintended consequences. The track and trace rules that the state is requiring may end up necessitating prepackaged product and could stop the whole train for patients putting into laws and rules we havent researched with conformity to state law. I ask us to be careful, thats why im asking that the director, and i think the amendment to make shall be part of it, but were coming into a different reality. The track and trace rules are very strong. And one of the reasons i understand what its like to try to figure out what works best. Thats why it was important to have on site consu
