He doesn't want that in Louisville, it will affect the quality of life If there is no <br />breeze, the scent will just sit there He does not object to the sale or consumption but <br />does not want to allow the cultivation in Louisville <br />Patricia Ross, 3561 W Monmouth Ave , Englewood, grew up in Louisville and opposes <br />marijuana grows She asked Council not to pass this as is and to consider setbacks or <br />buffers She would like impact studies done on water and waste The criminal element <br />should be considered Louisville is off the beaten path and that could invite crime She <br />
