I am in favor of the LA city councils decision to set new rules for the dispensaries. The 1,000 foot buffer around schools will curtail the explosion of the medical dispenaries that having been popping up like weeds lately.However, this may also lead to something like the "sex offender effect" that areas with less schools, parks,and libraries will become overpopulated with theses dispensaries. In conclusion, I agree that there needs to be rules for theses dispensaries such as closing their doors after 8pm or regulating them as far away as possible, however we must take into consideration the issue that since LA county is full of schools that we may regulating these places out of site but not out of mind as these dispensaries will only be somebody else's problem. The NIMBY effect.
