After months of seeking input and hosting workshops, the town of Truckee is getting ready to make some big decisions on the future of recreational marijuana.
Truckee Town Council is expected to provide staff with direction on the future of the town's cannabis policy at its upcoming meeting on Aug. 22 at 6 p.m. in Town Hall.
"At this point, we are hoping the council will give us some direction on where they want us to go with regulations," said Truckee Community Development Senior Planner Jenna Gatto.

"Either regulations that would prohibit cannabis uses in the town or regulations that would create a framework for any number of different uses," she said. "It could be just allowing dispensaries all the way to allowing commercial cultivation, processing facilities, pot lounges, etcetera, so that's really the next step for us."
The council meeting is expected to focus primarily on cannabis regulation, and is likely to be the first of multiple meetings in which town staff seek direction from council on how to draw up local regulations.
