Legalization of THC Sales in Alexander City Council
THC, derived from marijuana, can treat or prevent nausea and vomiting caused by cancer drugs. It was legalized statewide unexpectedly.

THC, which is derived from marijuana and can be used to treat or prevent nausea and vomiting caused by cancer medications, was unexpectedly legalized statewide by the State Council on July 1st.


Five companies in Alexandria Port have applied for a license to sell products containing tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), a compound that can cause marijuana to produce a state of excitement.


On Monday, December 12th, the Alexander City Council approved a submission from Ebacco after receiving additional information during a public hearing. However, approval for other applications was delayed due to incomplete submissions.


The THC licensing process is new, having only been approved by the council a few months ago.


THC, which is derived from cannabis, can be used to treat or prevent nausea and vomiting caused by cancer drugs. Surprisingly, the state legislature legalized it statewide on July 1.


This has led city leaders throughout the state to race to find answers on how to regulate the sale of THC through zoning and permits. In October, Alexandria passed a 16-page ordinance that regulates the sale and manufacture of THC-infused edibles, such as gummy bears.


This regulation mandates a license annual fee of $500 and an initial application investigation fee of $500.


Five companies have applied for licenses, including Ebacco located at 410 30th Ave. East, two locations of King Tobacco at 4617 Highway 29 South and 307 N. Nokomis St, Brothers Market at 610 McKay Ave., and Speedway gas station at 1422 Broadway.
