They should be fully legal. Same with any other drug.

Does your neighbors lot have easements or other restrictions? That would make sense if he can't use half the property for it to be valued less. That or the town is figuring that there is a fixed cost to service each parcel and divides it over the amount of land each parcel has. As long as its zoned as single residential use they know its going to be relatively fixed cost

I don't know any good shark lawyers but if you need an expert in bird law I know of a particularly skilled one in Philadelphia.

A lot of MA towns have absolutely absurd requirements around building codes. It's totally possible that the town sees a lot as "single family lot" and values them about the same, especially if it's impossible by town law to further subdivide and build more than 1 single family home on the lot.
​
How close to the market value of the lot is your assessment?

This will never happen. Look at how they tried to roll back weed legalization.

Welcome to the world of equity taxation. What town are we looking at here?
You can forget about trying to lower your taxes by downsizing because that is not a factor.

In the bill, the sentence before is basically "All this shit is legal:".
>Notwithstanding any general or special law to the contrary, all of the following shall be lawful for a natural person 18 years of age or older and shall not be a violation of state or local law:
The possession, ingestion, obtaining, growing, giving away without financial gain to natural persons 18 years of age or older, and transportation of no more than two grams of psilocybin, psilocyn, dimethyltryptamine, ibogaine, and mescaline, excluding the weight of any material such as water, plant and fungi material of which the substance is a part or to which the substance is added, dissolved, held in solution, or suspended.

Yup! My biggest worry is my supply suddenly ending. An added bonus is it makes me not want alcohol at all, even if I’m going out with friends to a bar. I drink a lot of mocktails or tonic water!
The one downside is if I DO have a drink it does trigger a migraine.

Absolutely! It changed everything for me. Been doing it for over two years. Made more progress with my mental health / depression / PTSD in the first 4-6 months than 10 years working with different medications. Legalization would pave a path to help so many others.

The problem I have with that is folks don’t really understand psychedelics as well as say cannabis…it’s not the same and can lead to bad experiences and yes overdosing… also I remember when I used to do them, I could only handle doing it 1 time a week because it made me very sick of say I did them one day after the other ( I think they have some toxins like strychnine or something like that… just my opinion of course

Is there anyone in the sub that's been following local politics closely enough to give a rough idea of how likely this is to pass?
