Detroit is set to accept applications for the second round of limited marijuana business licenses, with half reserved for "equity applicants" from communities disproportionately affected by marijuana prohibition.
The round offers 30 marijuana retailer licenses, 10 microbusiness licenses, and 10 consumption lounge licenses, aiming to drive growth and accessibility in the local cannabis industry.
After facing legal hurdles and addressing constitutional concerns, the city is actively working to reduce zoning restrictions and host informational sessions to guide applicants.
Successful candidates will be notified approximately six to eight weeks after the August 31 deadline.
