Dublin Marijuana Dispensary Raided by Police on December 26th
December 29th Open House and Rally at Medical Marijuana Community Space
On December 26th at about 2:30pm, the Dublin Police Department raided the Dublin Greene and the home of the owner, Cindy. The police took 2 pounds of herbal medicine in storage jars and edibles, hash, bud, merchandise (T-shirts), all the store and patient records, and about $7,000 cash from the store and staff. Patients were turned away by the police as the investigation was being conducted. No arrests were made.

The Dublin Police claimed that they were working from a tip that the Dublin Greene was conducting the "illegal sale of marijuana," and that the dispensary was not located in the correct zone. A staffmember explained that they were not selling, but were receiving donations and that they have not made a profit.

The Dublin Greene had been open since July of 2005- before the city of Dublin issued a moratorium on dispensaries on August 16th. This dispensary is known for being a clean, safe, cheerful, "mom and pop" shop that serves patients of the 580/680 corridor. The club has approximately 120 patients who are mostly residents of Dublin, Livermore, San Ramon and Danville. It has aimed to provide safe, quiet, local access for patients, and to fit into the neighborhood. The store has not turned a profit.

The Dublin Greene is asking that everbody who supports medical cannabis call, email, or fax the Dublin City Council and the Dublin Police and tell them, "We want the Dublin Greene Collective open today," and to return the patient records. The Dublin Greene will hold a rally and open house on December 29th, 2005 from 2-8pm at the Dublin Greene/Ducky's 6711B Sierra Court. There will likely be a protest at the Dublin City Council meeting, tentatively scheduled for January 3rd, at 7 PM.
