Change to Adult Use: At the December 12, 2018 Council meeting, City Council repealed and reenacted Chapter 9.22 of Title 9 of the Nevada City Municipal Code in order to allow adult-use cannabis businesses to operate within the City as opposed to medical-only businesses. Staff has determined that there are potential impacts to allowing existing authorized medical-only facilities to become authorized adult-use facilities, including but not limited to: parking needs, operational traffic increases, increases in solvent storage, etc.

IMPORTNAT INFORMATION REGARDING THE LIVE SCAN FORM!:
