Denver begins medical marijuana dispensary licensing February 8, 2010 - kdvr.com
DENVER - Medical marijuana dispensary owners crowded the Denver City and County Building Monday to apply for licenses under new guidelines passed by the city council.
Any person who owns at least a 10 percent share of a pot dispensary must apply for a license. Those with felony convictions within the past five years are not allowed to own one.
The application includes a background check, fingerprinting and $2,000 fee, plus the cost of the background checks. There is also a $3,000 annual license fee.
Dispensaries must submit applications by March 1 to continue legal operations.
Several bills moving through the Colorado legislature aim to crack down on the seemingly unabated spread of medical marijuana dispensaries across the state.
One would require a bon a fide doctor-patient relationship to exist before a doctor could write a medical marijuana recommendation. Another would effectively shut down all marijuana dispensaries by limiting the number of patients it could serve to five.
A third bill would impose an 18-month 'time out' on new dispensaries.

Interesting idea, but doubt it would work, would most likely crack down on the number of walk-ins getting a prescription, which is always good, but at the same time may make it harder to obtain a prescription for someone who direly needs it right away.

That is some fucked up shit, especially if they have to pay for a license, background check, and fingerprinting only to have their dispensary shut down. Its pretty much like saying, "Hey, thanks for shelling out a bunch of cash, and your finger prints, now that we have your money and you documented GTFO so we can watch as you do more illegal shit then pass another bill secretly to fuck you over.

Everything I say is heresay. All fiction for a fictional character.
Rule yourself, let no one else rule you. Down with government, and up with responsibility.

I've noticed latley that the nation is moving towards much stricter medical marijuana policies. Dont really see why, since prescription drugs are as easy as ever to get off the street/abuse.
