The commission will meet at 5 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 25, in the council chambers at Lakeport City Hall, 225 Park St.
At the Wednesday meeting the commission will hold a public hearing on the possible amendments, meant to develop procedures for the allowance of commercial cannabis uses within the city.
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 the meeting, commission discussion will include:
• Potential performance standards for commercial cannabis uses including cultivation, manufacturing, testing, retail delivery, etc.
• Possible allowance of cannabis dispensaries.
• Appropriate zoning districts for the allowance of commercial cannabis uses.
• Consideration of buffer distances for Commercial Cannabis uses (e.g., schools, parks, etc.).
• Commercial cannabis operation plan requirements and application selection criteria.
The public is encouraged to attend and participate. An electronic version of the staff report and other meeting materials can be viewed on the city of Lakeport’s Web site at http://www.cityoflakeport.com/departments/page.aspx?deptID=36&id=229.
Following that meeting the city will develop a draft ordinance for the regulations of commercial cannabis to be presented to the Lakeport Planning Commission on Wednesday, Nov. 8, at 5 p.m.
