The board that regulates legal marijuana in Alaska has approved the first businesses that will be allowed to offer onsite use of cannabis products in the state.

On votes of 3-2, the Marijuana Control Board approved applications by GoodSinse LLC in Fairbanks and Cannabis Corner in Ketchikan.

Daniel Peters with GoodSinse called the approval a dream come true.

His was the first of the two applications to be approved.
