Adam Trenk/Rose Law Group: "The reactions to the passage of Prop 207 limiting the potential for new marijuana businesses we are seeing from some municipalities is unfortunate."

Period. There is more > "The new law legalizing recreational marijuana could create thousands of new jobs and generated hundreds of millions of dollars in tax revenues at a time when our state desperately needs it. . ."

Adam Trenk, Rose Law Group Partner and Cannabis Dept. Director: Marijuana restrictions are ‘missed opportunities’ for municipalities

By Paulina Pineda, Alison Steinbach | Arizona Republic 

Cities across metro Phoenix are limiting where residents can use and purchase recreational marijuana in their communities in the weeks since voters overwhelmingly approved legalizing the substance in November. . .

Pro industry advocates should engage with qualified counsel to lobby against these archaic restrictions.

The City of Mesa's Mindless Lock-Step Mentality aka Dogmatic Group-Think

Nothing could say more than this post headline phraseology to describe politics and government here in one of the most conservative cities in America.

Most recently it's about an Ordinance that was before theCity Council in the Lower Chambers earlier this week on Tuesday 01 December: "MARIJUANA PROHIBITIONS". (That was the subject of multiple posts on this blog beforehand)
Marijuana Prohibition: A failed and costly experiment! It’s time to change the policy
On Tuesday 08 December there will be A PUBLIC HEARING on this issue after Proposition 207 - a hard fought citizen-initiative - was approved overwhelmingly by voters in the State of Arizona >> THE REALIZATION THAT PUBLIC OFFICIALS WERE SO FAR OUT OF TOUCH WITH PUBLIC OPINION INSPIRED A SMALL GROUP OF POLITICALLY DIVERSE ACTIVISTS TO CHALLENGE THE CONSERVATIVES' STRANGLEHOLD ON PUBLIC POLICY
We're facing the same challenge here and now - that was clear as the light of day when Deputy City Manager John Pombier, flanked by a seated phalanx of 3 Mesa Police officers - opened with this statement,We are going lock-step with the rest of the Valley to make sure we do this in a uniform measure, . ."

Smokin' Hot News: High-Ho! Mesa Is Getting 'Greener'

What to your MesaZona blogger's wondering eyes should appear just a few hours ago in an online report from AZ Big Media is that here in the most conservative city in America, the grand-daddy of Mesa law firms where both Mesa Mayor John Giles and D4 Mesa City Councilmember Chris Glover got their first start in the practice of law, there was this headline below. Being the Pundit-at-heart yours truly is, it appears that the 'grass-roots' citizen activist movement that put the issue of what's called in popular jargon medical marijuana' in a referendum overlwhelmingly approved by voters has creating an entire new engine for economic development.
It's reason to celebrate! Visions of sugar-plums, anyone?
Udall Shumway expands into cannabis law
"After over 50 years in business, practicing everything from criminal, immigration and real estate law to elder abuse, education and medical malpractice, Mesa-based Udall Shumway is now expanding their full-service law firm with 12 practice areas to include cannabis law.
“Finding quality information about cannabis law and the legal implications relevant to the business of cannabis is like finding a needle in a haystack,” said Justin M. Brandt, associate at Udall Shumway who is the leading counsel for the firm’s practice in cannabis law. “The flood of misinformation in the public realm only highlights the need for good legal counsel, and with the industry growing at a rapid rate we’re now working with cannabis-related businesses to minimize their risk as the law evolves.”
Though many state and tribal governments have fast-tracked cannabis legalization, the legal implications of commercial cannabis is still in its infancy due to constraints imposed by federal law. Udall Shumway now advises these cannabis-related businesses (CRBs) regarding the unique legal and regulatory issues surrounding the cannabis industry given the constantly changing dynamics between federal, state and local law. . . "
How big are the opportunities?
Among the areas in which Udall Shumway is helping CRBs navigate this developing industry includes:
• Corporate Formation and Entity Structure
• Licensing and Regulatory Compliance
• State and Local Government Relations
• Financing
• Labor and Employment
• Tax
• Mergers and Acquisitions
• Cultivation, Processing and Distribution Practices
• Litigation
• Corporate Governance
• Real Estate Transactions
• Intellectual Property & Asset Protection
• Land Use and Zoning

"Reefer Madness'?? Nope > The New Green Economy Is Driving Stock Markets Wild!

Hard-to-believe what used to be "a grass-roots home-grown" culture practiced by some freaks here in America during 1950's and 1960's, can turn into a money-machine for corporations. That is once it's legal tender and traded like any other commodity. 
"This company’s future doesn’t hinge on marijuana. If all forms of THC are banned forever in the United States, we think this company still has an incredible field of opportunity. (Heck, that’s why we recommended it in the first place!)
But now that there’s an estimated $80 billion industry emerging from the woodwork, their prospects are positively mouth-watering – and we think you’ll regret not getting invested now. . .
NOW Why is that according to The Motley Fool
Because after the November 6th vote, there’s the potential for even more capitalization for this small company. And if you’re not invested before then, you may come to regret it.
Election Alert: 1 Stock for the Marijuana Boom
By: Grace Phillips
An American flag in a barn.
On Tuesday, Nov. 6, Michigan became the 10th state in America to legalize recreational marijuana... and the very first Midwestern state.
Additionally, Missouri and Utah both legalized medical marijuana use. If you’re keeping track, that’s now 33 of 50 states with some form of decriminalized marijuana.
Now, why am I taking time out of your day to tell you about this?
Because I believe these three states are ushering us one step closer to an unprecedented boom in the cannabis market.
Frankly, I don’t care about cannabis itself… but I sure do care about massive opportunities for forward-thinking investors… which is EXACTLY what I see here.
Here’s what I’m talking about. Financial experts from all over the world agree: a marijuana boom is coming.
To the tune of an estimated $80 billion.
