Alex, who is 39, told NBC 7 that he has worked in the cannabis industry since 2009 and has owned a dispensary in San Diego in the past. He formerly worked in the mortgage sector. He attended the National City Council meeting regarding the prospective ordinance and, if all goes well, has a 10,000-square-foot lounge planned and believes Sessions By the Bay — the name refers to a social"smoking" session — could employ as many as 100 people by the time it opens.
While the couple has spent six figures on the project so far, they still have a long financial road to travel. "We intend to work with a lot of National City nonprofits and community goodwill organizations," Alex said, adding that"a percentage of our profits will be invested back into the community, specifically for youth programs, substance-abuse type programs and a few others."Approval of the South Bay city's ordinance, which permits retail sales as well, came last year after six people spoke in opposition during the public comment period of the city council meeting.
