29-Acre Calif. Pot Mall Plan Draws Controversy
The new development sits along one of California’s busiest traffic corridors
An abandoned outlet mall could soon be a new 29-acre “cannabis super center” in the middle of California’s Mojave Desert.
The Barstow City Council voted 3-1 to approve the project at a contentious Dec. 21 meeting that lasted nearly five hours. The development needs to earn a second council vote next month before it is fully approved.
The new development sits along one of California’s busiest traffic corridors, located about halfway between Los Angeles and Las Vegas.
