In a continuing movement to complete the process of instituting the recently passed marijuana ordinance the Nevada County Board of Supervisor appointed five hearing officers. Nevada County Undersheriff Joe Salavar asked the board to appoint five independent hearing officers to hear appeals on violations of the marijuana ordinance. The under sheriff says the five are highly qualified for the position.
