AI Summary
This resolution amends Arizona state law to prohibit the Arizona director from issuing registration certificates or licenses for medical marijuana dispensaries, independent third-party laboratories, marijuana establishments, and marijuana testing facilities in unincorporated territories that are completely surrounded by Indian reservations. Specifically, the resolution adds two new sections (36-2823 and 36-2866) to existing state statutes governing medical marijuana and marijuana establishments, effectively creating a geographic restriction on where such businesses can be located. The resolution appears to be aimed at preventing marijuana-related businesses from operating in specific unincorporated areas that are entirely within the boundaries of Indian reservations. Additionally, the resolution includes a provision for the Secretary of State to submit this proposition to voters at the next general election, suggesting it may require voter approval to take effect.
