• The city of Jurupa Valley is proposing an initiative that would allow (but regulate) medicinal and adult-use cannabis. The city is considering allowing retail, delivery, cultivation, microbusinesses, manufacturing, distribution, testing and nurseries within their borders. We will continue to keep you updated as we get more news!
