WINDSOR, Colo. - The Medigrow dispensary in Windsor says it will defy a moratorium passed Dec. 16 in the Weld County town. Medigrow opened five days before the moratorium was approved, but it was not included on a list of dispensaries that could stay open during the moratorium.
Windsor officials say the dispensary could be fined up to $300 a day for staying open despite the moratorium. Dispensary owners tell The (Greeley) Tribune that they'll pay any fines while they contest being left off the list.
"We have four or five tickets that we have issued him," Windsor Police Chief John Michaels said. "We monitor it every day and every day he's open is a new citation."
"Medigrow is open. Were accepting new patients daily and were going to continue. My attorney assures me there's nothing to worry about," Medigrow owner Lazarus Pino said.
Two dispensaries in Windsor have been allowed to stay open during the moratorium.
A Feb. 18 court date has been set for the Medigrow dispute.
