BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (WBKO) – Last month, Governor Andy Beshear signed a bill into law that allows businesses to have medical cannabis licenses.
Applications for business licenses open July 1 and close Aug. 31.
Types of business licenses include cultivator, processor, safety compliance facility and dispensary.
State officials released a map of the program’s 11 medical cannabis regions for licensing dispensaries.
The initial allocation of medical cannabis business licenses will be through a lottery system.
There will not be a lottery system for the allocation of licenses for Safety Compliance Facilities, as officials say there’s no initial limitation on the number of those licenses.
