On Tuesday night, the Indiana Borough Council continued discussion on a possible ordinance that would decriminalize possession of a small amount of marijuana.
At the planning meeting in January, solicitor Pat Dougherty was asked to put together a draft ordinance that would go through the borough committees. After the meeting, Board President Peter Broad said that the proposed ordinance is still a work in progress.
Borough Council member Tamara Collazzo said that after many people approached her about the issue, she decided to conduct her own survey on the issue.
Indiana County District Attorney Robert Manzi wrote a letter to council, asking to discuss the proposed ordinance with council. Council will host Manzi at their next work session in March.
