West Wendover is officially ready for a medical marijuana dispensary – now all the city has to do is wait for interested businesses to apply.
The City Council voted 4-to-1 on Tuesday in favor of an ordinance allowing a marijuana dispensary to open within its borders, the city’s clerk confirmed. The Nevada city – on Utah’s western border about 120 miles from Salt lake City – will soon accept bids from businesses interested in building and operating the facility, once the ordinance takes effect in mid-August.
The dispensary will be located in the city’s industrial area, city clerk Anna Bartlome said, as the location meets state requirements barring proximity to churches, schools and residential areas.
