Costa Mesa Opens its Doors to Legal Dispensaries
Costa Mesa city council on May 4 legalized retail cannabis sales and delivery.
It voted 5–2 to implement its cannabis ordinance, Measure Q, establishing minimum operating requirements and implementing a seven percent tax on cannabis retail businesses.
“I am very comfortable [with the ordinance],” Mayor John Stephens said during the meeting.
“Out of humility, I said it’s not perfect, and that’s probably true. We’re never going to get perfect, and we shouldn’t let perfect be the enemy of the good. These ordinances drafted are very good, very well thought of, and very considered by staff and by the council.”
