The Arkansas Medical Marijuana Commission will consider a consultant’s scoring of dispensary applications at a meeting at 4:30 p.m. today at the 1515 Building. The meeting is to be live-streamed on Facebook.

I can tell you that word is already circulating about alleged anomalies in the scoring of the applications. The process for cultivation permits was such a mess it was challenged in court and led to use of an outside consultant on the dispensary permits.
