The Prairie Village City Council Monday evening agreed to move ongoing discussions about potentially decriminalizing marijuana possession to the city’s diversity committee, even as the city’s top law enforcement officer warned against the move in comments to the city council. Councilmembers Inga Selders and Ian Graves started Prairie Village’s marijuana decriminalization conversation in January. Soon after, city staff was directed to look into possible options, including possibly removing marijuana-related language from the city code and reducing municipal penalties for marijuana possession and other offenses.
