The state of Alaska is working to finalize rules that will help govern its legal marijuana trade. But some industry supporters say a proposed ban on on-site consumption flies in the face of an initiative approved by voters last year.
Regulations being considered by the state’s Marijuana Control Board also would ban marijuana social clubs, allow local governments to protest license applications for marijuana establishments and set a single-serve potency limit for edibles lower than the limit in Colorado and Washington, the first states to legalize recreational pot.
The board is scheduled to meet Friday to consider possible amendments and work toward adopting the rules ahead of a Tuesday deadline.
