Oregon: City of Lebanon officials poised to ban psilocybin

Lebanon city leaders concerned about public safety and mental health are ready to say no to psilocybin again.

Voters passed a two-year moratorium on allowing psilocybin businesses in Lebanon with 61% in favor in November 2022.

City Council members discussed its future options during a work session Wednesday, Oct. 11. If they do nothing, the state framework for psilocybin manufacturing and services takes effect in November 2024.
