State officials are soliciting bids for medical marijuana dispensaries in Kent and Sussex Counties.
The state has only one so far First State Compassion Center in Wilmington which opened this past June.
But it’s been four years since law making medical marijuana legal went into effect.
The Wilmington News Journal reports that state officials say there are more than 700 Delaware residents who have received cards to buy medical marijuana.
Todd Boone, who has filed a lawsuit, told the paper that the state has run two years past the deadline it set for getting the operation underway.
The paper reports that compassion centers will be authorized to cultivate as many plants as is needed to keep up with demand.
But, the News Journal adds, that the centers cannot have more than 2-thousand ounces of usable inventory.
