Seven Loveland medical marijuana dispensaries have joined to form the Loveland Association of Wellness and recently drafted a resolution outlining the group's efforts to ensure their businesses are more acceptable to the community.

Additionally, the businesses plan to host open house events from 11 a.m. to noon Tuesday and Aug. 24.

Anthony Freitag, co-owner of Paradise City Caregivers, said he hopes the open houses bring residents into the dispensaries, allowing them to see what the businesses do.

The group's resolution includes regulations that limit signs on and around medical marijuana centers and eliminates advertising that promotes the businesses and/or their products.

Loveland Association of Wellness, or LAW, members also promise to prohibit consumption of marijuana in retail space or common areas, limit medical marijuana sales to 2 ounces per person per 96 hours and attempt to confirm the legitimacy of incoming patients' documents, according to the resolution.

This month, the Loveland City Council finalized ballot language to allow residents a final vote on whether medical marijuana dispensaries should operate in the community.
