Time to MAKE and ENFORCE DRUG FREE ZONES

The California Health and Safety Code Section 11353.1 enhances penalties for controlled substance violations within 1,000 feet of school grounds or buildings, or upon the grounds of facilities open for use by minors.

(See also California Health and Safety Code Sections 11353.5, 11353.6, 11353.7, 11380 and 11380.1.) Similar provisions are provided for in federal law; see United States Code Annotated (USCA), Title 21 Food and Drugs, Section 860a.

Have your law enforcement representative discuss these laws as well as local ordinances which may apply to Drug Free Zones. (Such as laws pertaining to the sale of drug paraphernalia, the restriction on the number of liquor outlets, etc.)
