COUNTY APPROVES MEDICAL MARIJUANA MORATORIUM

SUMMIT COUNTY - Summit County Commissioners this week approved a
120-day moratorium on medical marijuana dispensaries for unincoporated
areas. County officials are expected to create regulations for the
businesses like Breckenridge, Silverthorne, Dillon and Frisco - and
several communities across Colorado - have done in the past few months.

Location, operations and security requirements are among the
regulations adopted elsewhere.

With no regulations from the state level, community leaders have
struggled to draft their own rules for the dispensaries - which have
become one of Colorado's fastest-growing businesses.

The cities of Broomfield, Greeley and Superior have opted to ban
marijuana dispensaries.
