I'd say the existing dispensaries are already pretty legit.
There's a store a few blocks around the corner from where I work in Dowtown LA.
The dudes there seem pretty easy-going & don't resemble drug lords.
Maybe it's different in other cities in CA (Central CA is very conservative).
The only' black-market' is really there if you intend to peddle to high-schoolers or younger, which is another argument in itself.
I also think that all things equal, heavy penalties should also be imposed on minors obtaining illegal substances
(not just the person passing on/selling the pot).
Responsibility should fall on both ends.
Again, gouge them with fines, but don't throw them in jail.
I think for the recreational user in CA, things are pretty good right now.
I think for the state's budget, a better bill could be written.
