Denver issues ticket, warning letters to unlicensed cannabis hospitality businesses
Eight businesses have recently received warnings for hosting marijuana-related activities in Denver without the required license, with a separate ticket issued to Tetra Lounge.
On Saturday, the city investigated multiple locations after receiving complaints of illegal events taking place, said Eric Escudero, spokesperson for Denver Department Of Excise And Licenses. Officials issued a general violation ticket to the operator of Tetra Lounge at 3039 Walnut St. “for necessity of a license to operate,” he added.
Tetra Lounge didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. Escudero declined to comment further on that specific case, as it’s being handled by the Denver City Attorney’s Office as a criminal matter. Spokesperson Melissa Sisneros declined to comment on pending litigation.
In an unexpected turn, Green Dragon, one of the largest dispensary chains in Colorado, will keep its stores and grow facility open.
The retailer’s parent company, California-based Eaze, got an infusion of $10 million from its owner, Jim Clark, to remain operating, it announced Tuesday. Clark, the billionaire founder of the defunct tech firm Netscape, foreclosed on the company’s assets in August for $54 million.
“We’ve just been working with the new ownership group to assess what we’re doing in the future,” said Cory Azzalino, Eaze’s CEO. “It’s nothing world-shaking, but I’m excited to keep going.”
The first dispensary chain founded by Alex Levine, Andy Levine and Lisa Leder is preparing to cease operations in Colorado, three years after they sold it.
But they have high expectations for take two — their new chain, Fired Cannabis.
“Our plan is to get back to where we were,” said Alex Levine. “It’s just a long detour.”
At least 384 flights were canceled and 467 delayed at Denver International Airport on Friday as heavy snow pelted metro Denver and Colorado’s eastern plains.
The Federal Aviation Administration activated a traffic management program for flights bound for DIA “due to weather/snow-ice.” The average delay for flights under this plane was one hour and 50 minutes, FAA officials said, adding that departing flight schedules also may be affected by the weather.
There were 851 total delayed and canceled flights at DIA as of 11:45 a.m., according to Flight Aware. SkyWest reported the most cancellations with 183, followed by Southwest with 124, and Frontier with 30.
