Credit: Reuters/Robert Galbraith OAKLAND | Wed Jul 21, 2010 8:09am EDT OAKLAND California (Reuters) - The city of Oakland, California on Tuesday legalized large-scale marijuana cultivation for medical use and will issue up to four permits for "industrial" cultivation starting next year. The move by the San Francisco Bay Area city aims to bring medical marijuana cultivation into the open and allow the city to profit by taxing those who grow it. The resolution passed the city council easily after a nearly four-hour debate that pitted small-scale "garden" growers against advocates of a bigger, industrial system that would become a "Silicon Valley" of pot. "This is going to grow as an industry. And someone is going to have a high-tech producer," Council Member Jean Quan said during the debate. Oakland already taxes sales of medical marijuana, but cultivation has existed in a legal gray area. Council members plan later action to levy new taxes on growers. The city's decision is separate from a statewide ballot initiative to legalize marijuana for adult recreational use which Californians will vote on in November. Polls put support for the November state legalization measure at about 50 percent of voters, and if it passed, the state would be the first to broadly legalize its use. Many jurisdictions tolerate some personal use and small sales, but none allow major-scale growing, sales and recreational use. U.S. Federal law bans marijuana use of any sort but law enforcement authorities have turned a virtual blind eye to medical marijuana. Large-scale cultivation in California so far has been dominated by criminals who grow marijuana in national forests or complexes of grow houses, law enforcement officers say. The toughest opposition at the Tuesday city council meeting in Oakland came from the small-scale marijuana growers who feel they will be squeezed out of the market by the new 'agribusiness'. Outright opponents to marijuana use were silent. ]]>

<![CDATA[I am a small landlord with several properties in good repair. On a few prior occasions, I've inquired of MLGW telephone representatives about the possibility of being added to their "Owner Reconnect" program. Each time I have been told that the program is only available for folks who own 20+ units. The program works as follows (to the best of my knowledge): If the utility customer (your Tenant, for example) were to allow their MLGW bill to reach the point of having MLGW disconnect their utility service for non-payment, MLGW simply transfers the utilities back into the Landlord/Owner's name, instead of disconnecting the services and also waives the normal $50 Turn On/Connect charge. During colder weather, this has the added benefit of helping to protect the property from freeze damage, while (presumably) providing the Owner notification that they have now (re)assumed responsibility for the unit's utility services. They then have the option of allowing the Tenant to pay the utility bill through them or instruct MLGW to disconnect the service. Since most leases require the Tenant to maintain utility services for the Lease period, the Landlord/Owner is within his/her rights to do so, given a Residential Lease typically states that payment for utility services is the responsibility of Tenant. My primary reason for posting this information is to see whether there are many other small Owner/Landlords, such as myself, who would like MLGW to give their rationale for refusing to allow us smaller owners to participate or, preferably, broaden the program by decreasing or eliminating the 20 unit minimum requirement. I have also asked MLGW about the possibility of sending the Landlord/Owner a copy of any Cutoff Notice, which would at least let me know there was a problem and possibly allow me to assist in making some arrangements satisfactory to MLGW and the Tenant(s), while protecting the property from the possibility of frozen pipe/water damage, which could easily occur if/when utility service is interrupted without the Landlord/Owner's knowledge. They implied this might be possible, but were unable to provide me with details. I can tell you from personal experience, it is a scary feeling to suddenly discover you have a property, which has been without power for several days during intermittent sub-freezing temperatures (I believe their current policy is not to disconnect services unless the temp is forecast to stay above 32F for 24 hours). Given the level of technology that MLGW currently employs or has available, I see no reason for their failure to do more to ensure (small) Landlord/Owner's are apprised of any impending utility service interruption to their properties. An E-mail Notice, similar to that used with their "E-billing" program, would be fast and cheap vs a duplicate paper one. If you have a comment, suggestion or have hit a similar dead end with them, I'd enjoy hearing from you. Who knows, maybe if they listen to the same requests from enough folks, they'll consider the merits of the claim. Thanks!]]>
