Huron Daily Tribune, 20 Oct 2010 – BAD AXE – City council on Monday approved the first reading of an ordinance banning medical marijuana dispensaries in Bad Axe. Though the ordinance states its purpose is to "regulate the location and operation of ‘primary caregivers’ operating ‘medical marijuana dispensaries’ under the Michigan Medical Marijuana Act of 2008," the ordinance includes a statement similar to one county planners are considering adopting in that it prohibits dispensaries.
