The Councilmember made clear the importance of the business community voice throughout the budget making process, urging representatives from the business community to be engaged throughout the process from April through May. The Council also discussed two state cannabis bills around the creation of an emblem program as well as the State possibly contracting with an armored car service to collect all cash taxes from cannabis businesses.
