BOULDER'S NEW MEDICAL-MARIJUANA LICENSING PROCESS TAKES
EFFECT

Monday was the first day of Boulder's new licensing process for
medical marijuana businesses, and the city got about a half dozen
inquiries about the new applications, city spokeswoman Sarah Huntley
said.

No one has submitted an application, which can take a bit of time to
fill out, Huntley said.

Any business not currently in operation must get a license before it
will be allowed to open, according to the new regulations. Businesses
that are already operating also must apply for licenses by varying
deadlines, depending on each company's situation.

Businesses that were operational before Monday but were not in
compliance with the city's code on June 17 have until the end of this
month to submit a completed application for a license. Businesses that
were in compliance with all laws and regulations June 17 have until
Oct. 31 to turn in an application, according to city officials.

Under the city's code, medical marijuana business licenses are
required for any company involved in medical marijuana - not just
retail marijuana dispensaries, according to officials The license fee
is $5,000 - including a non-refundable $3,000 for the application and
a refundable $2,000 if a license is not issued.

Application forms are available online. The Website includes detailed
instructions, checklists and frequently asked questions. Questions can
also be e-mailed to medicalmarijuanaquestions@bouldercolorado.gov .

Completed applications will be accepted for processing by appointment.
