Denver City Council blocks newcomers to marijuana biz until 2016

  1. Excerpt from THCBiz.com:

    Only existing medical marijuana dispensaries will be able to open recreational cannabis shops in Denver until 2016, under a plan that received initial approval by the Denver City Council on Monday.
     
    The recreational stores also won't be able to open in new locations. Instead, dispensaries switching to recreational pot shops will have to stay in their existing locations and face an automatic public hearing. Dispensaries also can become combination medical and recreational stores but will have to put a wall between the two sides of the business and have separate entrances. The goal is to keep the city from being overrun on Oct. 1 by a flood of applications from newcomers looking to cash in on Colorado's legalization of marijuana use and regulated sales. The proposal is the first draft of regulations for forthcoming recreational marijuana stores in the city.
     
    They did the same thing in Los Angeles. 130 dispensaries got together and supported a move to only allow 130 dispensaries in the City. Well, as usual morons vote without thinking and now over 500 dispensaries have been closed. Brilliant, fools.....

  2. Watch those prices keep ticking up. Can't wait to see what they look like during the summer.

    That's only because there were thousands of shops. Most operating as fronts for the cartels.

    Yeah, that would be fun. See what the going prices is now per gram and then come back mid summer and see if any price gouging is going on.
     
  5. I live in Spokane,WA and yeah recreational was ridiculously priced at first but shockingly prices have dropped to street prices even with tax and the variety and quality in terms of molds,pesticides, other potential harmful factors cannot or seldom is matched in the dispensaries or random street dealers. Mostly due to the fact those dispensaries or growers don't test for these, which one would think they would if they were all about the patients as they claim.
