Now it is up to the Kern County Board of Supervisors, which approved the county law unanimously Aug. 9, to decide how to proceed. It will take up the issue Tuesday.

Supervisors can repeal their ordinance r they can place the question of whether cooperatives should be banned before county voters in a special election or during the June 2012 primary.
