13 recreational marijuana dispensaries coming to rural Arizona

Each application cost a whopping $25,000. Author: Niala Charles Updated: 10:25 AM MST April 20, 2021 PHOENIX Thirteen new recreational marijuana dispensaries are headed for rural Arizona.  The Arizona Department of Health Services gave out 13 licenses in a raffle Monday. Each application cost $25,000. AZDHS says they received 355 applications. Each person was able to submit a maximum of five applications. The proceeds will go back to state, city and school budgets. “I think there’s an incredible demand and it started when we saw the results from last November’s election,” said Samuel Richard, executive director of the Arizona Dispensaries Association. Since recreational marijuana dispensaries opened up in January, the state has collected more than 14 million in taxes from them. More money is still on the way.

The report was based on employment in 2020, before Arizona launched adult-use marijuana sales in January, so those figures are sure to rise as dispensaries around the state ramp up to meet the new demand from sales to any adult over age 21, not just medical-marijuana patients.
