CR 101 – Notice to Stakeholders 11/6/13 1000 foot buffer
NOTICE OF RULE MAKING – Pre-proposal #13-23
The Washington State Liquor Control Board has entered into the initial stage of rule making (CR 101) to revise WAC 314 – 55 – 050 regarding how the 1000 foot buffer will be measured for marijuana licenses.
The board has learned that how the 1000 foot buffer is measured under the rules adopted by the board on October 16, 2013, differs from the way the federal government measures the 1000 foot buffer.
The board needs to change the way the board will measure the 1000 foot buffer to be consistent with the federal government.
This notice can be found at http://www.liq.wa.gov/laws/laws – and – rules under Proposed Rules.
The Liquor Control Board encourages you to give input on this rule. Following the comment period, the agency will send out and publish the proposed revised rule, establish a comment period on the proposed rule, and hold at least one public
hearing before the rule is adopted.
Public Comment Please forward your initial comments to the Liquor Control Board by mail, e-mail, or fax by December 27, 2013.
