The purpose of this chapter is to establish land use restrictions for cannabis-related businesses licensed pursuant to Title 14. Cannabis-related land uses can be successfully integrated into specified areas of the community, provided they adhere to the restrictions set forth in this chapter. Nothing in this chapter is intended to authorize any activity that is contrary to State law.
(Ord. 1323 § 7, 8/28/17)
Unless otherwise provided herein, the terms used in this chapter have the same meanings as set forth in Title 14.
(Ord. 1323 § 7, 8/28/17)
A.
No
cannabis-related business may operate on any property in the City
unless a valid Conditional Use Permit authorizes the cannabis-related
use on the subject property.
B.
Notwithstanding any other part of this title including, without limitation, Section 17.96.060, a Conditional Use Permit approved pursuant to this Chapter only becomes effective if the cannabis-related business accepts all conditions of approval for the Conditional Use Permit, and pays all related fees for the Cannabis Business Permit under Title 14 of this Code, within 30 calendar days after the public hearing approving the Conditional Use Permit, and commences operations as determined by the City Manager. Failure to activate the Conditional Use Permit in accordance with this section renders the Conditional Use Permit approval void.
(Ord. 1323 § 7, 8/28/17; Ord. 1351 § 2, 3/12/18; Ord. 1353 §
2, 2/26/18)
Not more than 12 Conditional Use Permits for cannabis-related
businesses may be issued and active at any given time.
(Ord. 1323 § 7, 8/28/17)
A.
Cannabis-related
businesses are conditionally permitted in the C-G (General Commercial)
and M-1 (Light industrial) zones and are prohibited in all other zones.
B.
Conditional Use Permits for a cannabis-related business must comply with Section 14.08.020 of this Code as to distance requirements. It is unlawful for a Conditional Use Permit to be issued for any parcel that is:
1.
Within
600 feet of any other parcel containing a school. For purposes of
this section, "school" includes a pre-school, transitional kindergarten,
K-12 school, whether public or private.
2.
Within
300 feet of any other parcel containing a religious facility; park
(except those designated as primarily a pedestrian walkway rather
than for recreational purposes); State- or County-licensed child daycare
facility; youth center; or licensed drug or alcohol rehabilitation
facility.
(Ord. 1323 § 7, 8/28/17; Ord. 1342 § 2, 9/11/17; Ord. 1351 §
2, 3/12/18; Ord. 1353 § 2, 2/26/18)
The distance between parcels will be the horizontal distance
measured in a straight line from any property line of the sensitive
use to the closest property line of the parcel on which the cannabis-related
business is to be located, without regard to any intervening structures.
(Ord. 1323 § 7, 8/28/17)
In addition to any other conditions of approval deemed necessary and appropriate by the approving authority, an operations plan, including a detailed cash management plan is required as a condition of approval for any cannabis-related use. In addition to any other practices demonstrated in the Operations Plan, the cash management plan must include a kiosk based system at the facility to eliminate the cash transfers between employees and customers. Any cash management plan must provide detailed records of all transactions to the city and comply with all regulations promulgated by the California Bureau of Cannabis Control, when they become effective. If the operations and/or cash management plan include confidential and/or proprietary information the City will respect the confidentiality of the information submitted by the applicant. The required content of the operations plan is set forth in Chapters 14.12 and 14.16.
