Thalia Tringo posted a thorough report on the Chandler Street list. It is worth reading. Unfortunately, when I tried to paste it here I learned that it runs double the character cap for Live Journal. Lee

Thank you for following up with more details from the meeting. I am normally unable to attend these things in person because of my work schedule.

There was some very good insights in that write up, but I do not agree with some of the concerns raised. I think people should look more closely at existing medical dispensaries in the state, if they are worried about muggings of patients or if there is really enough demand to support such a business.

I am in favor of a dispensary in Davis Sq as well as having additional locations in other areas of the city. I do agree that two dispensaries directly across the street from each other may be excessive though.
