On Day 1, Alaska Gets 68 Applications For Commercial Cannabis Licenses

In its first day accepting materials, the state’s Alcohol and Marijuana Control Office received 68 applications for commercial cannabis licenses.

In a release sent out Thursday, the office said the roll out of its new online application system has gone smoothly, for the most part. However, reports of a wide-spread snag led AMCO to issue a cautionary note on its application page. “Please be certain you have entered all information relating to all human beings with an interest in the license application before you click submit,” read the advisory.

Before starting the process, potential applicants are being asked to watch a six-minute video explaining the rolling permit review process.

“This is not a race,” says AMCO Director Cynthia Franklin. “There’s no window where we’re taking applications. So what you need to be thinking about as a potential appliacant is, ‘when am I gonna be ready?’ Ok, if you’re not gonna be ready within 90 days of the date you begin your application you should ask yourself why you’re starting it now.” [Read more at Alaska Public Media]
