City officials will seek a temporary moratorium expansion to give City Council more time to discuss regulations, spokesman says
Denver city officials have pulled back from seeking a two-year moratorium on any new players in the city's legal marijuana market in response to City Council concerns, a city spokesman says.
On Tuesday morning, Mayor Michael Hancock's marijuana policy office instead will ask a council committee to approve an expanded 120-day moratorium, allowing time for more discussion and consideration of industry concerns. The current two-year moratorium — allowing only existing medical marijuana businesses to open recreational dispensaries, grow houses or edible manufacturers — expires Jan. 1.
Marijuana policy adviser Ashley Kilroy is seeking to extend that ban on new players in the retail marijuana market and to begin a new moratorium that would bar any new applications for medical marijuana business licenses.
