Town Council of the Town of Telluride will permit and regulate retail marijuana stores within the Town. The Town Council finds that the cultivation, possession, sale and use of retail marijuana may be harmful to public health, safety and welfare if not carefully regulated. This Article is designed to protect public health, safety and welfare from the potential adverse effects of retail marijuana.

It is the intent of this Article and this retail marijuana licensing scheme to implement a local licensing authority and rules for licensing retail marijuana stores, pursuant to Colorado Retail Marijuana Code.

This licensing scheme and Article of the Telluride Municipal Code are designed to implement a local licensing authority and distinct rules for licensing retail marijuana stores, pursuant to the Colorado Retail Marijuana Code § 12-43.4-101, C.R.S., et seq., and the provisions of this Article of the Telluride Municipal Code, and it is the intent of the Town Council to have the provisions of the Telluride Municipal Code govern and control should a direct conflict exist.

The Town Council may impose local licensing requirements, separate from those of the state, as part of its restrictions on time, place, manner, and number of retail marijuana businesses pursuant to § 12-43.4-301(2), C.R.S. (Ord. 1394, 2013; Ord. 1463 §5, 2018)
