Las Vegas could have consumption lounges by year end
The LV Sun reported that Las Vegas city officials are working to open marijuana consumption lounges by the 
end of the year. The current proposal calls for the lounges to be operated next to legal dispensaries. The lounge owners would not have to have a state marijuana license. Councilman Bob Coffin told the LV Sun “We’re being careful and moving slowly.” Coffin and Councilwoman Michell Fiore said they expect the new lounges will open by December. More Info.
