Home Grow In Ypsilanti

Is it legal to grow your 12 plants in Ypsilanti?

 

http://ypsiciti.com/section/News/Marijuana+zoning+ordinance+adopted+in+Ypsilanti+Twp.-article-2005.html

 

Stumbo said she had personally received about 10 calls from residents who were angry the township would not be allowing medical marijuana to be grown or dispensed in residential areas.

 

The wording of the ordinance is somewhat unclear (to me at least), and it's unfortunately not something you can really blow off - it's a 90 day misdemeanor to violate the ordinance, so a bad landlord could screw you for sure, if home growing is illegal.

 

They say you need to register to grow... and to do it in a light industrial zoned area... but this seems targeted at caregivers, those with big grows.

Thanks for any insight. Ann Arbor's obviously the best choice but Ypsilanti is a lot more affordable.

It seems to regulate caregivers only, but I'm not sure. Manufacturing facilities are defined as caregivers, home occupations are defined as caregivers... I don't see patients anywhere. Obviously it's really important to know the answer to this though...

No one lives in Ypsilanti?

“I don't know if this ordinance is perfect, but at least it's getting it out of our neighborhoods,”

 

No way would i stop let them find me .

I just called 3rd Coast and they say patients are allowed to grow their 12 plants, that the regulations just apply to caregivers.

 

They aren't lawyers, but it's something.

 

Anyone got a prepaid cell and the guts to call the City Attorney? I don't, and they didn't answer my emails (the police dept. didn't either). I need a chicken avatar. All I asked was whether patients can grow their 12 plants without harassment from the city.

Too bad SprintIP changed its policies... I'd ring them with that, lol.

All this would be is a cival infraction as long as your legal what it amounts to is a ordinance or blight type ticket or fine .

[purklize]

The ordinance actually says violating it is a 90 day misdemeanor.

Read it close UP TO A 90 DAY MISDEMEANOR doesnt mean the judge is going to impose that on a legal grower (not saying he wont either but anyhoo ) plus you should be grandfathered in since you were already established pre ordinance .

The story that the OP referred to is 2 1/2 years old. It speaks of Ypsi Township, not the city of Ypsi, Besides, it dosen't matter now
