Yankton Medical Cannabis Dispensary Applications Now Available

Friday was the first day individuals could apply for a medical cannabis dispensary license in Yankton.

Yankton City Manager Amy Leon says public interest in operating a medical cannabis business varies from day to day…

Leon adds that the deadline for the city to send medical cannabis applications to the state is November first, so applicants need to get their necessary paperwork turned in as soon as possible…

Leon says around ten serious inquiries have been received about dispensary permits in the city. Under the ordinance passed earlier this summer, up to two permits will be awarded. Applicants must pay a non-refundable $1,500 to the city for the permitting process. Renewal of the license would cost $3,000 annually.
