Public Comment Period: Double Eagle Cannabis Retail Marijuana Store License Renewal

The Alaska Alcohol & Marijuana Control Office (AMCO) has officially notified Essenkay, LLC, doing business as Double Eagle Cannabis, that its retail marijuana store license renewal application (#37255) is complete. The business is located at 2500 Spenard Road, Unit B, in Anchorage, with Naim Sabani listed as the designated licensee. Following this determination, the application has been forwarded to the Municipality of Anchorage and the Spenard Community Council for review. Under 3 AAC 306.060, the local government has 60 days to file a formal protest against the renewal. If a protest is filed, the Marijuana Control Board is required to review the application unless the protest is found to be arbitrary, capricious, or unreasonable. While the Marijuana Control Board delegated authority to the AMCO Director to approve renewals on May 15, 2017, the board retains the authority to consider the application independently if there are outstanding notices of violation, local government protests, or public objections filed within 30 days of this notice. If the application proceeds without issue, the 2026/2027 license will be issued during the annual inspection or mailed to the licensee.
