Cabot Management LLC - Addendum to MND (CUP 38-17)

The Cabot Management LLC Project is adding an amendment as part of the addition of an additional license type and associated “activity.” The revised Project incorporates one (1) change: • An added “Use” of cannabis distribution within the existing facility. As previously stated, the Cabot Management LLC IS/MND analyzed impacts associated with the proposed development of a two-story building totaling approximately 33,214 square feet (sf) and associated improvements. The revised Project proposes only to add an additional “Use” within the already existing 33,214 square feet (sf) building, no expansion or additional square footage is proposed. The added “Use” is specifically cannabis distribution. The revised Project, when fully staffed, will have approximately 24 employees that will work within the allowed operational hours. Proposed circulation and parking will be consistent with City parking standards. Off-Street parking standards for Marijuana Cultivation and processing uses are not specifically defined in the City Zoning Code. Therefore, City staff has applied parking ratios for similar uses including office (1 space per 250 square feet), processing (1 space per 750 square feet) and plant nurseries (1 space per 2,500 square feet are utilized), resulting in a requirement of 22 total parking spaces. The Project proposes to provide 28 parking spaces, two (2) of which are designated as ADA parking stalls. The 28 parking stalls will be aligned on the northern boundary and the west side of the property. Ingress and egress to the site will be provided from two rolling gates on Cabot Road. Controlled access keyed entry system such as a Knox box will be available for emergency access by use of police and fire personnel. The interim Project will have gated access on Cabot Road. The revised Project does not propose any additional square footage or ground disturbance. The site encompasses 1.25-acres and is in accordance with Desert Hot Springs Municipal Code 17.180. The facility will contain space for office use, cannabis cultivation, processing, and distribution.
