By Luke Ulatowski
The Deer Lodge Planning Board recommended the city council approve conditional use permits for two marijuana dispensaries on Main Street after a public hearing that was attended by over 20 locals Monday.
In the November 2022 election, Powell County residents approved allowing marijuana dispensaries within city limits in a 53% to 47% vote. In April 2023, the Deer Lodge City Council resolved to make adult use and medical marijuana dispensaries “permitted use” in the city’s B-2 highway district stretching from North Main Street through Fic’s Plaza and “conditional use” in the B-1 central business district, which covers downtown.
