The president of a newly formed medical marijuana company has proposed an indoor-growing facility in Hagerstown. The Herald-Mail of Hagerstown reports that Peake Releaf president and manager Warren Lemley told the Hagerstown Planning Commission Wednesday that he will apply for a license to open a facility in the city. The state is expected to distribute 15 licenses around December.
Lemley’s company is the second group to propose an indoor medical marijuana-growing facility in Washington County. Green Thumb Industries’ proposal was approved by the Washington County Board of Commissioners in July.
In addition to the state license, Lemley says his company needs the proposal to be approved by the Hagerstown City Council.
If granted a permit, Lemley says he would probably start with between 20 and 40 employees.
