In 2024, City of Loveland voters approved local retail and medical marijuana sales, allowing a limited number of retail and medical marijuana businesses to operate in Loveland, and imposing an excise tax on sales.

At this time, the City of Loveland is scheduling application consultation meetings with legacy applicants, starting Thursday, Feb. 5, 2026. This is the first step for a local marijuana license application.

To schedule your appointment, please contact Brett Stewart at 970-962-2304. Appointments will be scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis based on the order in which an applicant calls or leaves a voicemail. The process for non-legacy applicants will begin no earlier than Monday, June 29, 2026. 

The application consultation will cover the local licensing requirements and answer applicant questions to help ensure all application and licensing requirements can be fulfilled by the applicant. 

Available Dates for Appointments:

• Wednesday, March 11  - Starting at 2 p.m. and the last appointment at 3:30 p.m.
• Wednesday, March 25 – Starting at 9 a.m. and the last appointment at 10:30 a.m.

• Each Consultation will be limited to thirty (30) minutes and one (1) application.  Multiple applications will require multiple Consultation appointments.
• Legacy applicants who have scheduled their Consultations will receive the local license application and related materials via email no later than February 20, 2026.
