◼ The California Board of Equalization says the medical marijuana industry isn't paying the taxes it owes. - Bob Moffitt/Capital Public Radio
The Board of Equalization staff and board members -including George Runner recently met with marijuana dispensaries, nurseries, and growers in Humboldt County.
Runner says the County has begun to add marijuana growers to the tax rolls by establishing a permitting and licensing process.
"They've got concerns with water permits, with business licenses with seller's permits and Humboldt County is doing good work trying to figure out how to bring those people into the normal business stream."
