is it now just 35.00 to the state?
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (department) is considering a reduction of the medical marijuana registration fee from $90 to $35. In making this downward adjustment, the Department has looked at the direct and indirect costs associated with managing the Medical Marijuana Registry Program.
This spreadsheet details the costs to run the Medical Marijuana Registry Program. In summary, the department is assuming a registrant level of 120,000 applications per calendar year. The Department is also assuming 20% of those applicants will claim indigent status (defined as 185% of the federal poverty level); thus, the fee will be waived in accord with state statute. Therefore, 96,000 applicants will pay the fee. (120,000 X 20% = 24,000. 120,000 – 24,000 = 96,000). The program is anticipated to cost $3,367,726 per year to run. $3,367,726 / 96,000 applicants = $35.08 per applicant. The fee will be rounded down to $35.

Too bad everything they give away for free or cheap is straight schwag mang!!!
The CDPHE recently posted a delay in their process due to a "malfunction" in their email system. They are working to delay the hearings on rate reductions because a vast majority of cards are up for renewal from september - november. If they can get them re upped at the higher rate, the CDPHE will get paid much more. Nice....
Your bias is sickening... Just our center alone provided over 3 pounds of top shelf or high grade to sick, dying, and indigent patients through patient credits LAST MONTH alone. How much did you donate?
The size of a garden does not dictate the volume of evil as you are projecting.
Patient credits?.....sounds like they had to buy something to get something....more marketing ploys.
They are members that are sick and in need. You are so wrong. It must be hard for you to admit that.
You forgot to mention how much you gifted to patients in need last month. Year? Ever ? If you are going to extol your greatness, please share with us how you are helping patients in need in Colorado.
Dunno why they are asking for comment. All they need to do is follow the fuckin law and cover the costs of running the Registry and then pass the surplus back to the patients in the form of cheaper fees. (like they did previously when it went from $110 annually to $90 annually)

Agreed 100%... who is going to complain about a $55 discount/alignment of fees? The only reason for hearings is to delay the process in order to gain the higher fees for the 80% of card holders that expire in the next 3 months.
CDPHE is so slimy in their treatment of citizens that it isn't funny. You should see the mass of retarded reasons that they void applications and forms for.
do you have anything to cite for the 80% figure? I'll put that in the magazine next month. those guys are asshats.
