SACRAMENTO (CBS SF) — Gov. Jerry Brown has signed a bill authored by Assemblyman Bill Quirk, D-Hayward, that gives cities the authority to approve temporary cannabis events, Quirk said.
The assemblyman said he authored AB 2020 because he recognized a gap in cannabis licensing and permitting.
He said the bill, which Brown signed on Wednesday, grants local jurisdictions the power to determine what venues temporary cannabis events can happen in.
