Denver Approves Marijuana Delivery, Social Consumption Revamp

“You know cannabis has arrived when marijuana bills pass through Denver City Council with literally no comment.

Delivery will be cut off at the local dispensary closing time of 10 p.m., orders can only be delivered to residential addresses, and those placing the order will have to show their IDs to the delivery driver.

The city will now accept social marijuana consumption applications from more types of businesses, and will allow indoor smoking, micro-sales and mobile lounges, none of which were acceptable under the city’s previous hospitality program.
