The Marijuana Regulatory Agency has issued a reminder that starting March 1, people seeking a state license for a recreational marijuana business no longer are required to hold an active medical marijuana business license.
The easing of restrictions by the MRA applies to licensing for marijuana retailers, processors, Class B and Class C growers and secure transporters in Michigan.
“Beginning Monday, business entry into the adult-use marijuana market will be more accessible for all Michiganders, as the requirement to hold a license on the medical side of the industry will be removed,” Andrew Brisbo, MRA executive director stated, in a news release.
The MRA issued an advisory bulletin last November about the change in application process for a state license under the Michigan Regulation and Taxation of Marihuana Act. Application information, instructions and other educational resources for recreational or “adult-use” marijuana business licensing will be updated on the MRA website March 1, the news release states, and brief interruptions in service may be experienced at that time. Previous versions of applications won’t be accepted.
Those interested are encouraged to submit applications through the online application portal, Accela Citizen Access. ACA is also being updated to be consistent with this eligibility change and incorporate the changes to the paper applications. While the MRA will accept paper applications, it’s highly recommended that applicants use the online application, which has been specifically designed to ensure the efficient receipt of all necessary applicant information, the news release states.
Questions can be sent to the Marijuana Regulatory Agency via email at MRA-Adult-Use-Marijuana@michigan.gov. For more information about the Marijuana Regulatory Agency, visit www.michigan.gov/MRA.
