“It’s going to be more like a jewelry store.”
The backdrop may be colorful fall foliage rather than warm summer days, but Massachusetts really is nearing the opening of the state’s first recreational marijuana dispensaries. Never mind that it will occur close to the two-year anniversary of the state’s vote to legalize weed for adults.
“We’re getting closer and closer, and we’re doing it the right way,” Steve Hoffman, the chairman of the Cannabis Control Commission, said Thursday.
With 15 provisional retail licenses already issued, Hoffman said it’s a “distinct possibility” that the CCC will give final approval for the first adult-use dispensary at the agency’s next meeting in October. And when it does open, it’s expected to be a frenzy.
