In addition to the Ordinances noted above, the Board has previously given direction to staff on the Cannabis Cultivation Permitting Priorities on September 22, 2020, December 8, 2020, January 5, 2021, January 25, 2021 and February 9, 2021.
On March 22, 2021, the Board of Supervisors adopted an urgency ordinance authorizing a temporary moratorium on the commencement of Phase Three cannabis cultivation permitting pending the study and consideration of land use and other regulations pertaining to cannabis cultivation.
Summary of Request:
Proposed Chapter 22.18 would regulate the cultivation of cannabis as a land use issue and review it under existing standards within the Zoning Code, it requires a use permit or administrative permit for cannabis cultivation operations, and provides for site specific review of all proposed sites. In addition, the proposed Ordinance seeks to eliminate the duplicative permitting process that is currently required by Chapter 10A.17, where cultivators must obtain a local Permit and also a State License that are largely reviewing the exact same criteria. The proposed Ordinance would require a cannabis cultivator to obtain the appropriate discretionary permit locally to authorize the proposed use, as required by proposed Appendix A Chapter 22.18, and as such would be subject to stringent review related to compliance with requirements of the Zoning Code and the California Environmental Quality Act. All setback criteria from sensitive receptors and residential structures on adjacent lots, method of cultivation, background check, and other limitations would be handled through the State License process and all cultivation operations would be subject to compliance with the State regulations in regards to how the cannabis is cultivated. Since each cannabis cultivation operation will be reviewed under a discretionary permit, each site will be reviewed individually for compliance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This will allow for appropriate site specific conditions and/or mitigations to be applied to these operations to reduce potential impacts to less than significant levels. Neighborhood concerns would be addressed through the discretionary permit process and required findings would need to be made by the approving authority of discretionary permit in order to assure that the activity would not “constitute a nuisance or be detrimental to the health, safety, peace, morals, comfort or general welfare of persons residing or working in or passing through the neighborhood of such proposed use, or be detrimental or injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or to the general welfare of the county.” Corresponding changes to Chapters 10A.17 and 20.242 are proposed as well to avoid conflicting and/or overlapping regulations. In particular, Phase Two of Chapter 10A.17 has been given an end date and Phase Three has been eliminated.
The Planning Commission, at their March 19, 2021 special meeting, adopted a resolution making a recommendation to the Board of Supervisors that they approve the Project by adopting an ordinance amending Mendocino County Code, Title 22, to add Chapter 22.18 and amending Chapters 10A.17 and 20.242 of the Mendocino County Code to remove reference to the previous permitting system, with modifications made at the meeting and as specified in their resolution.
