The Mitchell City Council on Monday night tabled variance requests from two medical marijuana dispensaries. Several residents spoke against the variance requests.  DLJ LLC’s proposed location at 501 East Juniper is within 1,000 feet of another dispensary and has been opposed by local residents and landowners. The city ordinance says that two dispensaries cannot be within 1,000 feet of each other. Genesis Farms requested a variance for its location at 106 West 5th Avenue in downtown Mitchell. That location is within 300 feet of a church. City ordinance requires a dispensary to be 300 feet or further from a religious institution. The Mitchell Planning and Zoning Commission last week recommended denial of both variances by unanimous votes.
