Remove Residency Requirement For Marijuana License

Under current law, all managers and employees of a medical marijuana business or a retail marijuana business with day-to-day operational control must be Colorado residents when they apply for licensure. The act repeals this residency requirement.

The act clarifies that all employee licenses are valid for a period not to exceed 2 years and all regulated marijuana business licenses and licenses granted to a controlling beneficial owner are valid for one year.
