While use for those 21 and older is legal, there are still stipulations on where marijuana can be used. “The law prohibits using marijuana in public unless the location is licensed for the consumption of marijuana. Possession or consumption of marijuana or possession of marijuana accessories in a jail or correctional facility, on the grounds of a public or private school, institution of higher learning or in a school bus is illegal,” said sheriff’s office spokesman Sarah Boyd.
