LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lakeport City Council and Lakeport Planning Commission are planning a special October workshop to review possible amendments to the Lakeport Zoning Ordinance concerning the development of procedures for the allowance of commercial marijuana, or cannabis, uses within the city of Lakeport.
The meeting will take place beginning at 5 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 3, in the council chambers at Lakeport City Hall, 225 Park St.
The changes would reflect state regulations associated with the recently approved Proposition 64 that legalized the personal use of marijuana in California and other recent legislative changes concerning marijuana over the past couple of years.
At that meeting, the city council and planning commission will discuss:
• Discussion of recently approved legislation concerning commercial cannabis, including Proposition 64 and SB 94.
• Reviewing and developing standards for commercial cannabis uses including cultivation, manufacturing, testing and retail.
• Appropriate zoning districts for the allowance of commercial cannabis uses.
• Consideration of potential fees and taxes related to associated commercial cannabis uses.
The public is encouraged to attend and participate.
Following the workshop city staff will develop a draft ordinance for the regulations of commercial cannabis to be considered for adoption.
