- In addition to the Grand Jury’s health and safety “findings,” the body also said the board’s ad hoc cannabis regulations committee didn’t observe the Brown Act and lacked transparency, and that the supes were “overly chummy” with industry professionals.
- “I don’t think the Grand Jury really looked at how often we met with people on the other side of the debate,” said Supervisor Das Williams. The board submitted a letter of response to the Santa Barbara County Superior Court’s presiding judge.
