CRESTED BUTTE MULLING POT DISPENSARIES

CRESTED BUTTE - The rule-making for who can sell medical marijuana
and under what terms has gotten complicated in Crested Butte, where
10 people have inquired about the potential for setting up a business.

Rules being reviewed by the town council, reports the Crested Butte
News, call for operations only between 9 a.m. and 7 p.m., and
somewhat removed from schools and parks.

Whom they can sell paraphernalia to seems to be still up for debate.
The owner of a store that sells tobacco and paraphernalia dislikes
the idea of the medical marijuana businesses edging into his
paraphernalia sales. "It's not like this is New York or Denver, with
a huge customer base," protested John Benn. He predicted he might go
out of business.
