o Driving Performance <br /> o Reproduction <br /> o Industrial Accidents <br /> o Absenteeism <br /> Concerns we may face with the increased presence of marijuana may include: <br /> • Increased need for chemical dependency treatment services (at the same time resources have been <br /> dwindling for treatment from the State) <br /> • Potential for increased law enforcement need for determining, monitoring, responding to areas where <br /> the drug is being lawfully and unlawfully grown, produced or sold <br /> o Presence of weapons and violence related to drug thefts and criminal market presence and <br /> practices <br /> o Increased law enforcement response usually means all facets of the criminal justice system has <br /> increased duties <br /> ■ Both are reflections of increased cost to provide criminal justice services <br /> o Increased DUI's and harm from DUI's <br /> • The criminal justice system deals with people harming others and themselves, usually due to poor <br /> decisions, most of the time because of some substance effect on thought processes. Marijuana <br /> negatively influences critical thinking processes. <br /> Thank you for your consideration of these effects and factors in your decisions on siting and zoning. I stand <br /> ready to provide you greater specifics and sources of the above facts and information should you desire. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> William D.
