GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (NEWSCHANNEL 3) - The Grand Rapids City Commission has passed new regulations for medical marijuana caregivers.
They voted Tuesday to require those caregivers to register as a home occupation.
The ordinance also requires them to be at least 1,000 feet from any school and that all marijuana be locked away.
It also limits the number of patients getting pot from a caregiver to five a week.
So far the state has approved just over 10,000 patients and more than 4,300 caregivers since medical marijuana became legal last April.
