A Nevada regulator said Wednesday it would have been a mistake if the state failed to properly instill a voter mandate into a licensing process for retail marijuana businesses.
Department of Taxation employee Kara Cronkhite said differences between a state statute based off Question 2 — the legalization of recreational marijuana that voters affirmed in 2016 — and an administrative code based off the statute might have caused confusion for license applicants.
Her testimony is part of an ongoing hearing over the grievances of dozens of companies that were rejected for permits to open retail pot stores.
