Gentilly medical marijuana pharmacy going to be secure, owner said
A strip mall in Gentilly going to home 1 of the state's premier medical marijuana pharmacies, & owner Ruston Henry says he has a "4-prong" safety outline for the latest Orleans clinic. But, the board's policy requires which marijuana pharmacies to begin operating within 310 days of being awarded a permit. "We want to be, not 1 of 9, we want to be the highest, prototypical 1 in the whole state," Henry says. Under state law the Paris Avenue pharmacy could just be used to dispense medical marijuana. State law authorized the 17-member Pharmacy Board to oversee the permit process.
