Cochise County, Arizona, is currently not allowing any new licenses for recreational marijuana dispensaries. Officials stated that there are no new applications being accepted, leaving the county with only one operational dispensary.
The closure of Story Cannabis in Bisbee earlier this year has further reduced the number of dispensaries in the area. Now, only the Trulieve dispensary in Sierra Vista remains open for business, as the state has decided to halt the issuance of new recreational dispensary licenses.
This situation raises concerns for local consumers, as the limited availability of dispensaries may impact access to recreational marijuana products in Cochise County. With ongoing discussions about marijuana regulation, the community will need to stay informed about any potential changes that could affect the market in the future.
