LEAVE THINGS AS THEY ARE
We already have a 400-foot restriction between K-12 schools and local
dispensaries. Why do we need to add to that? I, along with a lot of
other people, believe that we should stop trying to take what is
helping our economy away from us.
College students are adults with the ability to make their own
decisions. And as for preschools, if our concern is to keep them from
being around the dispensaries and the lifestyles associated with
them, then we need to make sure the preschools keep better track of
the children attending their centers.
Between all of the dispensaries in Colorado Springs together, they
are bringing in hundreds of thousands of dollars monthly to the City
of Colorado Springs. Now, can you tell me what is so wrong with that?
Why can't we just leave things the way they have been? Is the city
that unwilling to accept that it will bring our city back to the
beautiful place it once was? A place when all of our city parks were
maintained and our street lights came on at night to keep our
neighborhoods safe for our children?
Please leave the laws the way they are.
