Butte-Silver Bow leaders in southwest Montana said they have no immediate plans to limit medical marijuana caregivers in the area.
Officials with the consolidated city and county government said laws already on the books address many concerns. Other local governments in the state have been putting new regulations in place to deal with rapid growth of the industry.
Nine caregivers have filed for business licenses in Butte-Silver Bow.
Commissioner Mike Sheehy said patients through their choice of caregivers will eventually eliminate providers who aren't legitimate.
Planning Director Jon Sesso said he recently denied a permit request in a residential area, and that decision hasn't been appealed to the zoning board.
