    I am opposed to cannabis dispensaries in Redondo Beach and urge the city council to pause all cannabis activity until safe product testing is in place, followed by implementing a delivery-only model to prevent the normalization of cannabis use for our youth. I do not want Redondo Beach with our award winning RBUSD “best school district in Los Angeles” to be the only beach city with storefront dispensaries.

    I urge the City Council to oppose this. We don't want marijuana use to be normalized among our youth. This will give easier access to the youth which should not be allowed. Please say no!

    Other beach cities use a delivery-only cannabis model and we should too. Storefront dispensaries will send the wrong message to our youth.

    Please protect our kids! This doesn’t need to be right in their face, but you know what should be a flourishing health district and mental health services! Kids are full of anxiety and stress and they need tools for dealing with the tension of life rather than temptation to just take a hit and numb it all.

    I am strongly opposed to cannabis dispensaries in Redondo Beach due to concerns about the safety, health and long-term impact on our community. My son and I have experienced the effects of such dispensaries. While we were initially open-minded about the medical necessity of cannabis, we were concerned about the impact it had on surrounding businesses. A few years ago, a new cannabis dispensary moved into the shop next to my son's karate dojo in Torrance. Even though their stores were separated by a wall, the smell of cannabis would sift through the cracks. It created an unhealthy environment for the children. The karate sensei even had to block off the door closest to the dispensary due to the presence of questionable individuals frequenting the dispensary. We need to prioritize the well-being and safety of our children over the potential economic benefits of cannabis businesses.

    I oppose the opening of two storefront cannabis shops in Redondo Beach.

    I am the mother of a RUHS student and an Adams Middle School student. Recently the RBUSD had the honor to be named “Best School District in the Los Angeles Area! I am, as a parent, part of that success like every single parent in the RBUSD community. We feel very proud. What message is the
    city council and mayor sending to our children as authorities and parents themselves, working to normalize the use of cannabis in our youth. I strongly
    ask the council to stop any further discussions about opening the storefront shops because is damaging the most important part of our community, our children.
    I support delivery-only model like our sister cities Manhattan Beach and Hermosa Beach. which will bring the same amount of revenue to the city
    without the liabilities and most importantly it does not directly impact our youth.
