As the recreational marijuana industry blossoms statewide on Jan. 1, the city of San Luis Obispo will at last take up the issue of how to regulate the product, including where to allow storefronts and how to tax it.

The City Council is expected to formally discuss its marijuana policy early next year, though a meeting date hasn’t been set. An ordinance on commercial marijuana is expected by late spring or early summer.
