Pursuant to sections 24-4-103, 12-43.3-202, and 12-43.4-202, C.R.S, I, Barbara J. Brohl, Executive Director of the Department of Revenue and State Licensing Authority, hereby adopt the aforementioned revised Medical Marijuana and Retail Marijuana Rules, which are attached hereto.
Section 24-4-103(6), C.R.S., authorizes the State Licensing Authority to issue an emergency rule if the State Licensing Authority finds that the immediate adoption of the rule is imperatively necessary to comply with a state law or for the preservation of public health, safety, or welfare and compliance with the requirements of section 24-4-103, C.R.S., would be contrary to the public interest.
I find: (1) the immediate adoption of these revised rules is necessary to comply with the statutory mandates of the Medical Marijuana Code, sections 12-43.3-101 to -1102, C.R.S., and the Retail Marijuana Code, sections 12-43.4-101 to -1101, C.R.S.; (2) the immediate adoption of these revised rules is necessary to preserve the public health, safety, and welfare; and (3) compliance with the notice and public hearing requirements of section 24-4-103, C.R.S., would be contrary to the public interest. |
