Colo. Rev. Stat. § 44-10-314

Current through Chapter 123 of the 2024 Legislative Session
Section 44-10-314 - License renewal
(1) Ninety days prior to the expiration date of an existing medical marijuana business or retail marijuana business license, the state licensing authority shall notify the licensee of the expiration date by first-class mail at the licensee's address of record with the state licensing authority. A licensee must apply for the renewal of an existing license to the local licensing authority within the time frame required by local ordinance or regulation and to the state licensing authority prior to the expiration of the license. The licensee shall provide the state licensing authority with information establishing that the application complies with all local requirements for the renewal of a license. If a licensee submits a timely and sufficient renewal application, the licensee may continue to operate until the application is finally acted upon by the state licensing authority. The local licensing authority may hold a hearing on the application for renewal of a medical marijuana business license only if the licensee has had complaints filed against it, has a history of violations, or there are allegations against the licensee that would constitute good cause. The local licensing authority shall not hold a renewal hearing provided for by this subsection (1) for a medical marijuana store until it has posted a notice of hearing on the licensed medical marijuana store premises in the manner described in section 44-10-303(2) for a period of ten days and provided notice to the applicant at least ten days prior to the hearing. The local licensing authority may refuse to renew any license for good cause, subject to judicial review.
(2) The state licensing authority may require an additional fingerprint request when there is a demonstrated investigative need.
