STEVENS asked does the City benefit from the taxes applied to marijuana sales. Rogers said excise taxes would go directly to the state. Beyond that, a somewhat unstated intent of the initiative is to make marijuana growing and selling businesses “legal,” which would mean they would pay B & O (business and occupation) taxes and state sales tax, of which the City receives a share. He continued the State Department of Revenue has opined that medical marijuana should be taxed, and the expectation is that taxation would carry forward in the final LCB regulations.
