ALBERT LEA – The city council in nearby City of Albert Lea, Minnesota, has approved two cannabis retailers, so you can get your smoking fix.
At its August 11 meeting, the Albert Lea City Council approved 2 of 3 cannabis retailer registrations on its agenda:
– Christopher Gracia of New Mexico, doing business as Matchbox Farms, plans to open a retail business at 2316 Hendrickson Road.
– Cristina Aranguiz of Washington state, doing business as Black Husky, plans to open a retail business at 2706 Ekko Ave.
The council took no action on a third registration, Jacob Schlichter of Albert Lea, a registration that it voted against at its July 28 meeting. The lack of action means the registration is not approved.
The council also discussed raising the current limit of 2 non-tribal cannabis retailers in the future.
