The Vancouver School Board will meet today to decide whether or not it will go to the city and ask for a greater distance between pot dispensaries and schools.

Right now, medical marijuana dispensaries need to be 300 meters away from schools, but NPA trustee Fraser Ballantyne is hoping to increase the distance to 500 meters.
