There will be 11 licensing regions and each region will get four businesses
Kentucky held the first of two lottery drawings for medical cannabis dispensaries on Monday.
Drawings took place at the Kentucky Lottery’s headquarters in Louisville for nine of Kentucky’s 11 licensing regions, including all of southern and eastern Kentucky, with 36 Kentucky businesses receiving licenses to sell cannabis legally.
