That's what we need here in New Mexico. Here we have a lot of people who need, but the supply is very limited.
Way to be on top of your game Frank.

You should post it on your facebook page for marketing purposes. Or create post on dailybuds.com. The Colorado Cannabis Convention is coming up...could be good for your dispensary. Do you know how to embed videos?Quote:

You make is sound like the rest of the state is operating illegally. Seems to me the classy thing to do would be not call attention to it?
the licenses are for Denver only. It's not a state thing.
seems like something to brag about to me.
it would be amazing if the DEA swooped in after the news coverage, but I wouldn't put it past them. I think they are dyeing to swing a dead cat!
Congrats bigtime. that's very cool.
did any of the coverage get put on youtube yet?

No meds today at your house? You could not be more wrong IMO about what you think they might be implying here. This is a big deal and patients, caregivers, and dispensary owners have a stake in the legitimization of this industry.Quote:

Congrats, bro! That is really cool. I wish I lived there.
I still love your idea of taking your jar back for a refill. it all seems so natural that way. :greenthumb: what a contrast to way its sold on the black market. :(
Best of luck. I really hope to visit someday if I can move out there and get free and legal. :)
Thx friends. It's been one hell of a Roller Coaster Ride. Let me tell you.
I know I have at least 10000000 more gray hairs after the past few months.:thumbsup: lol
Frank
Congrats Frank! Great news, glad I won't have to worry about not being able to get your meds due to some technicality in the process. I'll probably stop in later today for some more Stevie, as I finally killed the last of what I had.
Your in luck once again. As I've just pulled another jar of the "Stevie" out from a long winters rest.Quote:

Um, yeah.. I really like this Trainwreck x Cheese. Too bad that jar was running on 'E'... when you have more, I got dibs on some.
Go Carwin!
I will have some more on the shelf Sunday. Cure is almost there.
Frank
Congratulations! :thumbsup:

On a wall inside Frank Quattrone's office hangs a framed white sheet of paper.
It's nothing fancy, just a few printed words and numbers, with a faint official seal in the background.
What it represents, though, is more remarkable. Quattrone's business, Pure Medical Dispensary, is one of the first stores in Denver history to be specially licensed to sell marijuana, and that piece of paper proves it.
"It didn't look like I expected it to look," Quattrone said of the license, which arrived last week after weeks of negotiating city hall bureaucracy. "It didn't have any bling to it."
Denver officials have received 259 applications for medical-marijuana dispensary licenses. After a lengthy review process, the city has issued three.
Pure Medical, on Bannock Street south of downtown, and Walking Raven dispensary on South Broadway were issued licenses Wednesday. A third dispensary, Sunnyside Alternative Medicine on West 38th Avenue, was issued a license Friday.
The Denver City Council approved an ordinance this year requiring all dispensaries in Denver to have a special license â?? becoming one of the few cities in the state to require such approval. Those that applied for a license before March 1 were allowed to stay open while their applications were processed.
The ordinance also set up operating rules for dispensaries. Penny May, the director of Denver's office of Excise and Licenses, said no one has been ticketed for violations, such as being open without applying for a license or allowing on-site consumption.
May said the application processing has been running smoothly, despite the large number of applications and the numerous steps each application must undergo on its way to approval.
"It's going well," she said. "The applicants have done their due diligence in getting all their requirements in."
Applicants must undergo a background check, submit dispensary diagrams and security plans, and pass inspections on everything from fire safety to signage to zoning location.
Quattrone jokingly said the process was like jumping through spinning hula hoops, with inspections turning up unexpected obstacles.
"It just wasn't quite all spelled out when they banged the gavel and the ordinance was made," he said.
Some dispensaries have had more unpleasant surprises than others. Eleven applications have been denied so far because the dispensaries are located in inappropriate zoning. Those dispensaries are allowed to remain open while they appeal.
Steve Wiskow â?? who owns Green Karma Medical on Capitol Hill â?? said he was told his dispensary would have to move because, while the converted mansion he and a number of other businesses occupy is zoned for commercial use, the surrounding neighborhood is zoned residential. Wiskow said he is appealing but marveled at how complicated the process is, even for a business veteran.
"I've built companies from scratch," Wiskow said, "but this is the most difficult because every day it changes."
