Sacramento lawmakers voting on $5.8M grant to help legal cannabis market

With California cannabis retailers continuing to face a drawn-out licensing process, the city would put most of the funds toward its equity program.


SACRAMENTO, Calif. — While California's Department of Cannabis Control greenlit about $5.8 million in grant funds for the Sacramento Office of Cannabis Management on Dec. 24, 2021, the City Council has the final say on whether to accept the money.

The council is expected to vote on a final stamp of approval at Tuesday evening's meeting with more than $3 million being awarded because of Sacramento's Cannabis Opportunity Reinvestment and Equity (CORE) Program.

The funds come at a time when about 82% of the state’s cannabis licensees still held provisional licenses. As of April 2021, according to the governor’s office, there are more unlicensed retailers working in the state than licensed distributors.

Chico City Council grants Velvet's cannabis dispensary appeal, denies three

 

Ava Norgrove, Reporter|November 6, 2021

The Chico California City Council met on Nov. 2 to discuss a controversial topic within the community: cannabis dispensaries. 

Four cannabis dispensary businesses: Ashe Chico LLC, Authentic Chico LLC, Grupo Flor and Velvet Chico were present that evening to appeal denials of their applications to open storefronts.

Only Velvet Chico’s application was approved, the three other dispensaries denied.

“Before we start, please refrain from any applause or booing,” Mayor Andrew Coolidge asked the gathered crowd. “If you have a sign, please stand at the back of the hall.”

City Attorney Vincent Ewing spoke to the City Council to provide context and important information found by staff before each appellant.

Ewing said each case presented that night was too close to “Sensitive Use” locations. These businesses are defined as such because they primarily cater to children as a “Youth Center.”

All four applicants had been denied because they were determined to be less than 600 feet from “sensitive use” locations.

Red Bluff City Council reviews status of cannabis ordinance

Red Bluff Tehama County California

RED BLUFF, California . — On Tuesday, the Red Bluff City Council will review the status of a drafted cannabis ordinance and a petition submitted by a group hoping to bring commercial cannabis businesses to Tehama County for the first time.

 Cody Strock, director of Revive Red Bluff, says they have gathered roughly 1,400 signatures supporting the initiative to bring legalized commercial cannabis back in June and submitted the signatures to the City of Red Bluff. The city has received the signatures from the group to verify.

 "They told me it was on track. I submitted around 1,600 signatures or so, and the vast majority of them, 98% are valid. Which puts me about 200% to goal for the threshold of what is required to make this happen," Strock said.

 In May, the city council selected an attorney to represent the city as a special cannabis counsel, assisting the city with revisions to the draft cannabis ordinance.

Strock says he is pushing the ordinance to move forward in having residents who want to establish a cannabis business in Tehama county have the ability to do so.

Who has the finest flower? Sacramento California State Fair to hold first marijuana competition

Sacramento California - "Cannabis is coming to the California State Fair. For the first time, the fair in 2022 will host a competition — open to all licensed cannabis cultivators in the state — to judge the finest flower in California.

 Entrants will be divided into three divisions: indoor, mixed light and outdoor. Judges will evaluate the cannabis flower, with seven individual cannabis plant compounds being tested and identified for awards. That includes two cannabinoids — CBD and THC— and five terpenes, which are naturally occurring aromatic compounds that give the plant its characteristic smell and which are a source of plant essential oils and resins.

The California State Fair will hand out 77 bronze, silver, gold and double gold medals to the winners, as well as seven Golden Bear trophies for the “Best of California” in each category.

Confusion for business owners hoping to join Chico’s commercial cannabis future

 

CHICO California — "Standing before the Chico City Council, frustration and confusion has been ongoing for those invested in what once seemed a clear path to commercial cannabis business in Butte County.

After being halted shortly after the 2020 election, six months later two council meetings restarted the application process for commercial cannabis business. However, the city is only allowing three dispensaries to open, and business owners are worried about opportunity and further costs if distribution and manufacturing continue to be blocked.

Jessica MacKenzie, a longtime commercial cannabis advocate, shook her head in disbelief Thursday, discussing the June 1 council meeting which finally reopened the commercial cannabis application process."
