"I don't know why this came up on the DEA's radar," Mendocino County Sheriff Tom Allman said, adding that none of the other approximately 10 applicants had been raided by the DEA.
"I'm sure when the case is unsealed by the judge we'll know a whole lot more," Allman said.
The Mendocino County Board of Supervisors finalized changes in the county's ordinance governing the cultivation of medical marijuana earlier this year - codified as section 9.31 of the county code. Among the changes is an exemption to the county's 25-plants-per-parcel rule for cooperatives that apply for a permit with the Sheriff's Office.
The changes were effective in May, and the county adopted permit and garden inspection fees June 22. The permit requires applicants to buy a zip tie for each of their plants from the Sheriff's Office, which are intended to signify that the plants were inspected for compliance with state and local law.
