The City of Grand Junction has passed ordinances allowing for 10 recreational cannabis stores to operate within the city limits.
All marijuana dispensaries must be located in certain regions of Grand Junction but not outside the city such as Fruita or Clifton. Each cannabis dispensary location such as Kind Castle Organic Cannabis is required to be located far enough away from schools and other sensitive properties such as drug rehab facilities.
Kind Castle Organic Cannabis has been leasing its location for a while waiting for the marijuana licensing process to begin which started 2 weeks ago and ends June 8th 2022. Other applicants – the usual suspects – such as HighQ, Native Roots, The Dab, The Green Joint, Tumbleweed and Rocky Mountain Cannabis are expected to apply for retail cannabis store licenses as well. Grand Junction is finally about to have cannabis retailers!
Kind Castle Organic Cannabis has plans for a retail marijuana superstore in the center of Grand Junction strictly for recreational sales, although the city is also allowing dispensaries to sell medical cannabis products. Kind Castle Organic Cannabis will offer all the great specials and selection of up to 50 strains in Grand Junction just like the Kind Castle’s cannabis store in Parachute. Kind Castle Organic Cannabis currently has online ordering with detailed pictures allowing customers to view the best strains in Colorado right on www.KindCastle.com. Customers can place their orders and have their order ready for pick-up. Kind Castle has been expanding all throughout Colorado and Grand Junction is the latest move of expanding retail presence.
In Grand Junction, each dispensary applicant has a chance to be randomly chosen in license lottery expected to be held in July or August of this year. In the election on April 6 of last year, 58% of voters in the City of Grand Junction approved a ballot that proposed the retail sale and taxing of marijuana and marijuana-infused products. Voters have finally approved recreational and medical cannabis dispensaries to operate in Grand Junction and those ordinances are now effectuated. Currently, the towns of Palisade and Parachute are the closest places for Grand Junction consumers to shop for cannabis products. Customers generally state that Parachute has proven to offer better options and service to consumers over the options in Palisade. Kind Castle Organic Cannabis prides itself on offering the best organic marijuana strains from the top growers across Colorado all under one roof.
The City of Grand Junction first started holding its meetings 6 months ago on cannabis business regulations as reported here and continued into 2022. Back in January the Grand Junction officials were still deciding where cannabis dispensaries should be located. For a period of time, Grand Junction planning officials and staff were torn between a weighted points system and random lottery process. Despite the long delay in Grand Junction catching up to the rest of the State of Colorado for retail marijuana sales, many members of the city government weren’t too concerned about new dispensaries opening up such as the Grand Junction Mayor. Ultimately the City decided to just hold a random lottery system so the process wasn’t just skewed towards bigger chains, allowing Grand Junction locals and first operators to have a fair chance to enter the market.
In the November 2021 election, as reported in this article, voters also approved cultivation in unincorporated areas of Mesa County but dispensaries must operate in Grand Junction city limits once the licensing lottery choses the winners.
