Colorado Springs Clubs File Lawsuit Against City law

Staff
April 18, 2016

Nine cannabis consumption clubs in Colorado Springs filed a lawsuit Friday, seeking an injunction to stop the city from enforcing the club ban it enacted March 22.

The clubs "reasonably relied" on their inclusion as social clubs under the city's zoning code, says the lawsuit, filed in El Paso County District Court by Denver lawyer Robert J. Corry Jr.

Eight of the clubs are in "permitted use" districts, the suit says. Those are the Lazy Lion, Studio A64, Canna Canyon, The Pothole, Granny's Joint, Springs Dreams, the Dab Lounge and My Club 420. One Love Club is in a "conditional use" district, Corry writes.
