Las Vegas, Oct. 30, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Terra Tech Corp  (TRTC), is pleased to announce that they have received a unanimous vote for approval of their Western Avenue dispensary location by the Las Vegas City Council.  On October 29, 2014, the City Council voted to approve both the MediFarm SUP and the Compliance Permit.  If MediFarm receives a State provisional registration certificate for a Medical Marijuana Dispensary at this location on November 3, 2014, then MediFarm will proceed with the last step for full licensure, a final review for a privileged business license in the City of Las Vegas.  If succesful the company will begin construction at their Western Ave location and will open under the name Blum LV.
