Will recreational marijuana be able to be legally sold in Lamar? A petition may be circulating to determine if there’s sufficient interest among registered voters to have the question placed on the City of Lamar’s November ballot. SoCo, a cannabis retail company with interests in the state, is undertaking the task of circulating the petition, according to Lamar City Administrator, Steve Kil. The number of signatures will help the company determine if there’s enough interest in retail sales to move forward to have the question assigned to the ballot. The company will bear the cost of developing the ballot question. This move does not involve the City of Lamar, and is a private enterprise with no ties to any city funding, a point stressed by Kil and Lamar Mayor, Kirk Crespin, during the council’s bi-monthly meeting on April 12
