BRECKENRIDGE LOOKS AT MARIJUANA REGULATIONS

BRECKENRIDGE - Breckenridge is considering telling medical marijuana
dispensaries how and where they can operate in town.

The draft regulations up for discussion Tuesday would bar dispensaries
from operating at night to try to prevent robberies. They also
wouldn't be able to have signs advertising that marijuana is for sale
or be located in the downtown core that's visited by 2 million
tourists a year.

About 60 dispensaries have opened in Colorado to serve a growing
number of people registered to use medical marijuana. They're not
regulated by the state so Breckenridge town councilors decided to come
up with rules of their own after a resident announced plans to open a
dispensary.

Commerce City is also drafting its own regulations.
