Here is some perspective from one of the parties looking to open a dispensary:

“We still intend to use the same grow house,” Smith said. “As for the dispensary, we're going to      take another look at that. We're going to try to be in compliance with the zoning laws, and we're going to try to be as far away as possible from any schools or churches in order to take away that reasoning from the City Council.”

Location. Location. Location.  Could that really be the hold-up?  Sounds more like political posturing to me.  Maybe the elections will get the ball rolling.....

0 - 15, lets try again.  The Rhode Island Health Department again opened the application process for would be medical marijuana compassion centers in the state.  Applicants will have until November 12 to do so.  My guess is that most (if not all) applicants will be repeats from the first round where none of the 15 applicants was deemd "qualified" by the Health Department.

Here is a link to a recent article in the ProJo with further details: http://www.projo.com/news/content/MORE_MARIJUANA_10-05-10_THK7A1T_v8.2159744.html

Although the Health Department previously stated that it would open at least one and up to three compassion centers, I'm taking the under.  Look for one center to open as a test run, especially given the difficulties in the original application process.
