At the Monday, April 13 meeting, the Snoqualmie City Council unanimously voted to renew a six-month moratorium on the acceptance and processing of applications for marijuana producers, processors, retailers, dispensaries and collective gardens.

The city first adopted this ordinance in April 14, 2014, and renewed it October 13.

The moratorium was set to allow Snoqualmie enough time to establish a city-wide plan that coincides with state law and ensures that any operation sites are appropriate. Decisions will be based on the final outcome of the cities’ of Fife and Kent attempts to ban marijuana growing sites or stores and future legislative rulings.
