The Alaska Marijuana Control Board adopted emergency regulations last week to allow the state’s cannabis dispensaries to offer curbside pickup services to their customers in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a local webcenter11.com report.
The new rule took effect April 17 and allows customers to place orders online and over the phone for curbside pickup or pickup through a walk-up window or drive-thru service at certain dispensary locations.
In order to offer this service to customers, Alaska’s dispensaries must request an operating plan change to their license, provide written verification that their municipality allows the change and obtain written approval from the Marijuana Control Board, webcenter11.com reported.
