Kind of odd that in this Republican stronghold called Redding, the city would shut down the marijuana collectives because they are "scared" of the feds. Now that Redding has done this, do the business owners get back the permit costs/fees involved with starting up? They should. Phil Brown, Redding - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
