RI recreational marijuana sales to begin soon, guidelines in the works

With sales of recreational marijuana scheduled to begin Dec. 1 at Rhode Island’s medical marijuana dispensaries, officials at some of those establishments are anxious to know what specific requirements they’ll have to follow. 

That guidance is coming next month, said Matt Santacroce, acting deputy director of the state Division of Business Regulation and head of its Office of Cannabis Regulation. 

“There absolutely is going to be a very detailed guidance process around that,” Santacroce said Friday. “It’s in the process of being developed right now.”

That guidance will include such details as whether dispensaries must have separate doors or customer lines for medical and recreational use marijuana sales, and how much marijuana product must be reserved for medical marijuana patients.
