| Purpose/Objective of Rule |
The purpose of the emergency rules is to implement HB19-1090 ("Concerning Measures to Allow Greater Investment Flexibility in Marijuana Businesses"). There is insufficient time to undergo a permanent rulemaking process for the implementation of House Bill 19-1090, as the act became effective immediately upon the Governor’s signature pursuant to a safety clause. However, significant stakeholder input was received during two stakeholder work groups completed prior to adoption of the August Emergency Rules. |
