San Diego is now one of a handful of cities in California to have a fully regulated supply chain for marijuana.

The city just finalized its legalization of marijuana cultivation and manufacturing on Tuesday which means indoor pot farms and manufacturing sites for edible products are legal.

The City Council approved the legislation in a 6-3 vote and said the legalization will boost the economy and create jobs as well as improve the quality and safety of local marijuana.

“I believe it’s our obligation as the City Council to have responsible regulation of all parts of the supply chain,” said Councilwoman Barbara Bry.

“We have to listen to our police officers and not people who want to make a profit off of this,” said Councilwoman Lorie Zapf, who voted no.

Councilman Mark Kersey, a Republican who supported the legislation said, “My focus now is on implementing the will of the voters in the absolute safest way possible, while minimizing impacts to our communities.”

“The ordinance before us is a logical and responsible addition so that we can regulate these facilities.”
