Breckenridge Town Council is currently favoring to allow up to 8 new retail marijuana shops on Main St. and/or the core of town with some restrictions. Council will vote mid-October. Proponents of this petition believe this direction will result in substantially more risk than reward for the local community. Primary risks center on a material change away from a family friendly resort destination and place of residence and the corresponding long term adverse effects on the local economy. To be clear, this is not an opinion to move marijuana shops out of Breckenridge town limits.
