City Council Meeting Minutes June 1, 2010 Page 6 of 10 Mayor Pro Tem Marsella inquired about the land use criteria stipulating the number of MMC's within an area as opposed to grandfathering in an existing center and whether a limit can be set within the City's regulatory powers. City Attorney Light stated the separation requirements may mitigate the negative impacts of the businesses. Councilor Yarnell voiced her interest in using the regulatory powers to permit Medical Marijuana Centers in a manageable fashion. Mayor Sisk was concerned surrounding cities may ban MMC's and Louisville would become a center for other communities. He favored regulating marijuana for Louisville residents.
