Cannabis advocates in Lubbock, Texas on Tuesday submitted their petition to decriminalize the possession of small amounts of cannabis in the city after collecting 10,540 signatures, which is more than twice what it takes to force local officials to vote on the proposal.
Full story after the jump.
The city secretary’s office still needs to verify the signatures are valid before the issue moves to the City Council. The ordinance aims to decriminalize the possession of less than 4 ounces of cannabis and cannabis-related paraphernalia within the Lubbock city limits and prevent law enforcement officers from using cannabis odor alone as probable cause for a search.
