Longmont has been awarded more than half a million dollars by the state government through a grant specifically for cities that don’t allow retail marijuana sales. The Longmont City Council in April gave Children, Youth and Families division manager Christina Pacheco Sims the go-ahead to apply for the Local Government Marijuana Impact grant program, offered through the Colorado Department of Local Affairs. Longmont requested $567,540 for prevention, intervention and suppression of teen marijuana use, largely through the remodel of the old fire station at 1200 Lashley St. Longmont received the entire $567,540 the city requested — more than any of the other 15 applications from various city and county governments.
