NIXA, Mo. — Nixa City Council voted to change part of its employee policy to include a ban on consuming recreational marijuana.
“I know a lot of large corporations still have zero-tolerance policies and I view government entities as larger corporations in a sense,” Councilman Shawn Lucas said during the Monday night city council meeting.
That zero-tolerance policy means council members can not use marijuana even off the clock.
