The Board of Supervisors received an update regarding the Cannabis Working Groups during the September 12, 2017, CEO Report; the Board received an update on the issues and/or information discussed by the Cannabis Working Groups during the September 19, 2017, Board meeting.
Summary of Request:
During the September 12, 2017, Board of Supervisor’s meeting, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) provided an update to the Board regarding the Cannabis Working Group calls via the CEO Report. The report included an update on the August 30, 2017, calls hosted for the Cannabis Working Groups. This first call consisted of 30 participants including key County staff members. Call participants discussed the proposed working groups as well as additional topics to consider, resulting in the formation of the following eight working groups:
• Requirements for Building use
• Track and Trace
• Overlay Zones, Exemptions and/or Exclusion Zones
• State License Requirements/Amendments to State Law
• Cycles/Number of Inspections
• Transferability
• Non-Cultivation
• Marketing
Based upon feedback received from the working group participants, the top four working groups identified were as follows:
• Track and Trace
• Requirements for Building Use
• Overlay Zones, Exemptions and/or Exclusion Zones; and
• State License Requirements/Amendments to State Law
The Executive Office coordinated the four working group calls for September 13, 14, 2o and 26, 2017. On October 5, 2017, the Building Use and State Requirements working group met at the County Administration Center to develop recommendations for the Board. The Chief Executive Officer and working group members will provide the Board updates on developing recommendation for modification to Building Requirements and State advocacy priorities.
