The Pasco City Council moved ahead Monday night with plans to draft an ordinance to lift its ban on retail cannabis in commercial and industrial zones. The council rejected a move to ask voters for their opinion on the issue. The moves put Pasco ever closer to becoming the first city government in the Tri-Cities to lift its ban on retail cannabis. But they will first need to pass an ordinance in the coming weeks or months before stores can open up to sell pot. About a decade ago, Washington voters passed Initiative 502 to legalize and comprehensively regulate the production, possession and retail of cannabis statewide.
