The Clark County Zoning Commission today approved time extensions for more than three dozen medical marijuana companies to get established, giving them until May 31 to be operational.
Commission Chairman Steve Sisolak required each applicant — or a representative — to state on the record that their businesses would be operating by May 31.
“I have a problem when I have patients that applied for cards and there’s still no product available,” Sisolak said. “We want you all to succeed, but it can’t be delayed any more.”
Applicants stated they had faced a number of challenges in opening their establishments — from working out electricity concerns with NV Energy, negotiating with contractors and in dealing with the county planning department. Almost all of the applicants stated that they would be open by May, with some promising to be open by earlier — later this month or early January.
Sisolak said he would pull up each applicant’s on the record promise if they tried to come back to the commission in May requesting a second extension of time.
“We better see a lot of operations open up over the next year with all these commitments,” Sisolak said.
The applicants receiving extensions today included 17 dual cultivation and production facilities, 11 cultivation only facilities, seven dispensaries, one dual cultivation and dispensary facility and one independent testing lab.
The commissioners also agreed to give two dispensary applicants an extension of time beyond the May 31, provided the state division of Public and Behavioral Health grants an extension of their provisional certificate. Both applicants received their provisional certificates in June and stated they would need additional time to get their operations up and running.
