Medical marijuana collectives could be barred from opening in Redwood City for up to two years after the city council approved a temporary moratorium targeting them Monday. This according to a San Jose Mercury News article posted here.

With little discussion, the council voted 7-0 to prohibit any medical marijuana collective from setting up shop for 45 days. The moratorium can be extended in January for an additional 22 months and 15 days.

City officials say the moratorium will give them time to draw up regulations for the collectives on issues such as security, hours of operation and criminal background checks. The city currently has no laws regulating medical marijuana collectives or a zoning designation for them.
