Zoning text amendments for adult-use cannabis dispensaries

AI-assisted researchHow this was researched and checked

After a public hearing on January 12, 2021, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted to recommend that the City Council approve City-initiated zoning text amendments creating the adult-use cannabis dispensing organization as a special use in the office and business districts, with spatial restrictions, application requirements and an off-street parking minimum, while prohibiting non-dispensing cannabis business establishments. The minutes record that the motion carried on a roll call vote. The City Council's own action is not part of this record.
