Document Description
The Department of Cannabis Control, pursuant to authority granted under Business and Procession Code, Section 26012, approved a commercial cannabis Retailer license submitted on 09/20/2023, by Green Rush, LLC. The Project will consist of the conversion of an existing single story, 1,480-square-foot (sf) commercial building occupied by a drive-through and walk-in coffee shop (Gold Rush Coffee). Under the proposed project, the eastern 230-sf portion of the existing building, currently used as the walk-in lobby and service counter for Gold Rush Coffee, will be converted into a separate tenant space for Green Rush Cannabis. Following the conversion, the only access to Gold Rush Coffee will be via the drive-through. Green Rush will only be accessible by walk-in; the drive-through will not service Green Rush customers. No changes to the existing building footprint or height are proposed and no ground disturbance will occur. Proposed site improvements include one interior wall separating the cannabis dispensary from the coffee drive-through. Patrons of the cannabis dispensary will not have access to the coffee portion of the building and patrons of the coffee drive-through will not have access to the cannabis portion of the building. A new door will be installed in the new wall for Green Rush employees to access the restroom located in the Gold Rush portion of the building; Gold Rush employees will not have the access code for the door from the bathroom to the Green Rush tenant space. Gold Rush Coffee employees have a separate entrance to the restroom only accessible from the Gold Rush portion of the building. Within the dispensary, a closet will be built housing a safe which will provide storage for cannabis products. Cannabis products will not be stored in the coffee portion of the building and employees for the dispensary will not need to access the coffee portion of the building to conduct business or retrieve products for sale. Additional site improvements will include modifications deemed necessary to meet requirements for security and odor control including the installation of five security cameras, an alarm system, security locks, and one air purifier.
