Steven J .Hoffman, Chairman of the Cannabis Control Board Commission, says the Commission has been racing through applications from prospective marijuana businesses looking for an expedited review.
He says because of a transcription error, those applications should have been in a batch for denial.
He calls the mistake unfortunate.
