The legal Cannabis\u00a0 market is still in its infancy, and experiencing some major growing pains. One such growing pain is that of transparency. Customers and regulators want to be able to access information in regards to licensees, be they retail dispensaries, growers or cultivation facilities.

A recent string of burglaries has compelled the LCB to remove this map. There\u2019s no confirmed correlation between the burglaries and the LCB\u2019s disclosure of locations, but the state government has chosen to err on the side of caution.\u00a0 This information is still accessible by the public via a public records requests (as mandated by Washington law).<\/p>\n
