Sponsors of a medical marijuana dispensary named the Apothecary Inc. were served a notice of injunction by Pacific Grove City Attorney David Laredo on Wednesday, prohibiting any transfers or sales of marijuana on the property.
The announcement of the injunction was made after the council broke from a closed-door session Wednesday to discuss litigation, the Monterey County Herald reports.
Laredo named Daniel Maniscalco, Tamara Mims, Erica Gamecho and Carmen Nazay specifically in the injunction, filed on grounds that the city has declared a moratorium on issuing permits for such dispensaries.
Maniscalco told the council that no marijuana transactions had taken place on the property.
Convening in open session, the council voted 6-1 to extend the moratorium for 10 months, but asked city staff to return with recommendations for regulating such dispensaries or banning them altogether in May.
