Wednesday, February 26, 2020 – CADCA proudly presented this installment of its Research Into Action webinar series on Wednesday, February 26, 2020 at 2 pm EST featuring Dr. Julia Dilley discussing her recent article, “Community-level policy responses to state marijuana legalization in Washington State”, which was published in International Journal of Drug Policy in 2017. Dr. Dilley discussed her and her colleagues’ article’s findings regarding local regulation of marijuana sales following state legalization in Washington, as well as preliminary data from other states. The article found that 125 cities and 30 counties in Washington State passed local ordinances to address recreational marijuana retail sales and the most commonly enacted policies were zoning restrictions, limits on business hours, and bans on retail sales. Dr. Dilley also discussed how her findings can be applied to coalition work and what local policy options are available to coalitions addressing marijuana sales in their communities.
