Subject: County of Hawaii Resolution 339-15 to for a County Sales Tax on Medical Marijuana
Sold at Dispensaries
Attachments: RES 339 Draft 012014-2016.pdf
Aloha!
I Disagree and Do Not Support the proposed County of Hawaii Resolution 339-15, attached to impose a County
Sales tax on medical marijuana sold at Dispensaries.
As you are aware, Hawaii Island has one of the largest number of patients needing medical marijuana. The
earnings of a majority of these people is very low. I believe. having a County Sales tax would hinder or keep
many of these patients access to their medicine. In addition, higher costs could contribute to some people
resorting to obtaining medical marijuana on the Black Market.
Please Do Not Support this Resolution.
