Document Description
The project consists of commercial cannabis cultivation conducted under the Medicinal and Adult-Use Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act (MAUCRSA) in Mendocino County. As of April 2023, there are 623 commercial cannabis cultivation sites, 23 of which have associated cannabis distribution transport-only operations within the unincorporated areas of Mendocino County that hold provisional state cannabis cultivation licenses, and distribution transport-only licenses and that may therefore operate MAUCRSA, on a conditional basis, for a limited period. Department of Cannabis of Control (DCC) is considering whether to transition some or all of these provisional licenses to annual licenses (i.e. whether to issue annual licenses to some or all of these provisional licenses). DCC may also consider other annual licensing actions (e.g. the issuance of new, additional annual cultivation licenses) for future commercial cannabis cultivation within the unincorporated area of the County.
