3 cities sue Adams County over recreational pot taxes
Our editor doesn't check our pictures that thoroughly.
DENVER (AP) - Three suburban Denver cities are suing Adams County to stop it from collecting taxes from recreational marijuana businesses already being taxed by the cities and the state.
The lawsuit filed this week argues Adams County shouldn't get tax revenue because it doesn't have a regulatory system for recreational pot sales like the cities.
Filing the lawsuit are Aurora, Commerce City, and Northglenn. An Aurora marijuana business, Terrapin Care Station, is joining the cities suing.
Colorado imposes a 10 percent sales tax on marijuana sales, and municipalities levy their own tax, too.
Adams and other counties argue they're still impacted by the drug's legalization, even if they don't regulate it.
Adams County voters last year approved an additional 3 percent tax that will start July 1. County officials say they're simply honoring voters' wishes.
