To Grass Valley City CouncilI walk the wonderful Wolf Creek Trail almost every day lt gives me a lot of joy and I am grateful that you constructed itHowever there is a lot of shooting from near the animal shelter I think its police practicing

The animals are terrified as it is and when the shooting starts they literally start screaming (not just barking)It breaks my heart and I wanted to let you know that I was hoping you could figure out a solution to this I do think theanimal shelter is improving in the care it is providing but the shooting is just toxic for these terrified animalsRespectfullySusan Clark5307988215

hello my name is DIANA GAMZON and im executive director of the nevada county cannabis alliance a tradeassociation representing over three hundred members of the local cannabis industry we provide educational supportand public policy initiatives that promote a thriving local cannabis industry in the county i want to thank the grass

valley is to be council and grass valley s to the staff for your openness to welcome a cannabis industry into the citylimits after joining the effort to establish a regulated cannabis industry in about accounting we understand the grass

valley is moving cautiously into canvas regulation and with respect to this attitude we have modified ourrecommendations tonight to help balance what is needed to start a cannabis industry with the communityconsiderations The current proposed zoning and setbacks eliminate viable available partials in which cannabisbusinesses would be able to operate We encourage the Council to consider expanding zoning in areas withcompatible uses for cannabis businesses and other light industrial allowances such as the use of overlays in generalindustrial business parks in special development areas With strict limits on the available parcels were welcominginto the community well funded out of town operators versus helping locals open businesses Please ensure thisordinance is iaccessible to local residents lying to operate craft cannabis businesses by reducing the residential set

back from 500 feet to 250 feet Additional light industrial parcels become available While still providing the city withthe desired residential set back buffer in addition we strongly recommend expanding the zoning for retaildispensaries the zoning is currently limited to heavy commercial and light industrial with common businesses such

as auto repairs heavy machine suppliers and industrial storage dispensaries operated the cash only business in

locating these businesses and heavy industrial areas composed risk of less visibility from law enforcement this puts

both employees and patrons at risk the economic ripple effect of dispensary s have been well documented in

communities throughout the county country and there is a direct correlation between money spent its trendingrestaurants shopped and special specialty stores the ordinance can serve as a foundation for creative careeropportunities for locals examples of jobs include chief financial officers Scientist supply chain managers andmarketing specialist specialists Testing labs often hire PhD positions the limit on the sides of manufacturingbusinesses has not yet been justified and it limits entrepreneurship and innovation the restriction also does not allowbusinesses to pivot in the future the twenty eighteen grass valley strategic plan continually appoint appoints todiversifying the economy providing opportunity for non traditional retail supporting small farmers and providingopportunities for industrial businesses to thrive in addition line four B eleven express is the goalto evaluate theeconomic social and community impacts of a dispensary we are here to today to advocate for an industry that is in

alignment with with the existing goals set out and adopted by the city We encourage the Council to consider thecomments provided by the industry this evening as you deliberate We recommend that the Council vote to considerthe recommendations that have been provided Thank you for your consideration

hello good evening my name is basil mcmahon i live at one eight five seven two is trying to place in unincorporatednevada county im calling to encourage got five city council to consider a few changes to the ordinance has

proposed Yeah lm an owner and operator of a cannabis distribution and manufacturing business in Nevada Citycalled Rough and ready goods and we have a facility here lts about 5000 square feet By no means is it a large

space Half of our facility here is for our distribution business with one license and approximately the other half ofthe manufacturing license And I understand that this citys proposal is to limit the size as the square footageallowed for manufacturing businesses i dont understand the justification forthis restriction i can understand thatyou know perhaps the rationale for for setbacks or for restricting the zoning but what is the rationale for restrictingthe size of the manufacturing business and if there is a rationale why why is that limits for at five thousand squarefeet and not say ten or fifteen thousand square feet i dont expect there to be enormous manufacturing facilitiesgetting set up in grass valley its just not actually all that practical most businesses operate in moderately sized

facilities but to keep it to you know a couple thousand square feet would really restrict the ability of thosebusinesses to succeed similarly i encourage you strongly to reconsider the proposal to tax cannabis based on itspotency there are a lot of products on the market which why are you know use responsibly and are more potentthan seventeen percent it could be at absolute deal breaker for businesses trying to get set up and to follow therules and participate in the legal marketplace and to pay taxes so i strongly encourage you to reconsider thatparticular portion of your morning thank you very much for your consideration have a good day

ordinance really severely limit the opportunities for cannabis businesses to take hold and flourish in your city lt willdrive up the price of real estate or those select few properties to the exclusion of all other properties i wouldencourage you to do put together an ordinance that will help and industry actually succeeded in grass valley And ldlike to close by thanking those of you on the Council for your service to this community and for consideration of thiscontroversial topic in the Community of Grass Valley Thank you

Tuesday November 102020 551 PM

Public CommentsCannabis Business Ordinance public Comment

Dear member of the Grass Valley City Council

My name is Maria Herrera Im once again submitting a public comment similar to my email to the Grass Valley Planning

Commission hoping this time my public comment could be taken into consideration I am a board member of theNevada City Cannabis Alliance and for the past four years I have worked as a consultant helping cannabis businesses

acquire local and state licenses and set up operations in Nevada County throughout California and other states wherethere are existing cannabis regulations such as Oregon and lllinois

I commend city staff and the citys efforts to begin the process of establishing a cannabis business ordinance that has thepotential to positively impact the citys economic development goals

However as written the ordinance has the potential to stifle the benefits the city could potentially reap from having a

cannabis business ordinance

First the zoning restrictions in the current draft of the ordinance could inadvertently create a gentrification effect thatcould displace existing businesses in the proposed green zones When zoning regulations such as this are establishedin such a restrictive manner landlords in those areas would be willing to evict or displace existing businesses under theflawed premise that they could charge a higher rent per square footage to cannabis tenants than they are currentlygetting from existing tenants This has proven true in places like Sacramento which experienced the displacement ofother manufacturing industries and services such as auto body shops to give way to higher paying tenants in thecannabis industry some of which in the end couldnt bear the burden of higher rents This would neither serve residents

of Grass Valley existing businesses or future cannabis businesses

Reducing the residential setback from 500 to 250 feet could make more parcels available for the proposed use

Second the restriction on the square footage allowed for manufacturing businesses (4000 square feet) is arbitrary anddoes not take into consideration the space needed to operate a compliant cannabis manufacturing facility that is safeand congruent with state requirements

Third the restriction for distribution companies on their ability to distribute to other cannabis businesses such as

manufacturers and other distribution companies is also arbitrary and does not take into consideration how the cannabisindustry supply chain works Many cannabis distribution companies focus on bulk sales or wholesaling while othersprefer to focus on packaging and labeling products that are ready for distribution to retail As city staff and legal advisorssurely must know and as per state regulations cannabis retailers can only receive products packaged in its final formwhich includes weight and dosage restrictions tamper evident sealing and full information panel Restricting what typeof businesses cannabis distributors can compliantly and legally distribute products will greatly hinder the businessability to diversiff based on facility layout and expertise These kinds of restrictions would not allow for a healthy and

thriving supply chain distribution model

Lastly I will let other speakers touch on the draft ordinances lack of access for patients or Medical Use which wouldeliminate access to those needing medical cannabis most among other points that would create barriers to entry formany cannabis businesses

Yes good evening My name is Brad P Simer I actually live in Alta Sierra on Brewer Rd but I want to comment onthis evenings agenda My concerns as being the former vice chairman for the Americans for Safe Access GroupComma i think its extremely important that we expand zoning basically we have limited commercial space andallowing the zoning To allow to you know being commercial and neighborhood Flex center and allow for a nonretail businesses within the within the special development areas is important thing said facts i think that we shouldkeep the set backs for educational institutions an reduce residential setbacks from five hundred to two hundred fiftyfeet if you look at the cannabis businesses that are existing they have extremely good relationships with all of theirneighbors and i think that would be maintained going with in residential Medical use my my whole thing involved inthe cannabis industry has been based on medical use And I think that we should have a retail option to promoteaccess for medical cannabis patients ive always worked in that way and i think thats an important thing i wouldalso like to see the processing license added to fulfill on need for local cannabis farmers basically their ability to alsoprocess materials on their farms a lot of times they have to ship that material off the farms which is anotherextensive cost involved in the project and then basically id like to see removed any of the arbitrary requirements onmanufacturing including square footage limitations as well as restrictions from manufacturing licenses Holding are

also a retail license i would like for this to move forward i appreciate your time this evening and i look fonruard toseeing progress on these issues thank you very

Good evening I am calling to leave a public comment in regards to the cannabis ordinance that the Grass Valley CityCouncil will be considering tonight My name is Sarahs Mail I am in Nevada County resident and an attorney whopractices in Nevada City and around Nevada County My law firm Origin group law works primarily with cannabisbusinesses who hold or are in the process of obtaining local permit and state license is related to the cannabisindustry i want to start by thanking the city council for its willingness to consider cannabis businesses within the cityof grass valley i really believe that expanded access to cannabis permits and license types within the county willallow revenue to stay within the county and also provide the permitted cultivators and the unincorporated area ofnevada county and increased ability to work with local distributors manufacturers testing laboratories others in thesupply chain and allow us to keep those revenues within the county by opening up some options in the city of grass

valley i do have a few specific recommendations related to the proposed ordinance the first is that i stronglyencourage the city council To allow retailers to obtain both medicinal and adult use license designations themedicinal designation allows cannabis patients to purchase additional amounts of cannabis in cannabis productsthat may be necessary for patients medical needs in which are otherwise inaccessible Because there are morerestrictive limitations on amounts that may be purchased under an adult use only licensed retailer this second itemthat i would like to speak about relates to the license types i strongly encourage you to add a processing license

many nevada county cannabis farmers cant process their own cannabis plants following harvest on their ownproperties because they dont have appropriate facilities and so allowing processing facilities within grass valleywould just allow some additional options and again keep some revenue within the county as well as the local

farmers business so they dont need to go to folks in sacramento in other areas the last thing i want to mention is i

would ask that you remove the arbitrary requirements relating to manufacturing businesses including the squarefootage limitation and then the and the limitation also holding a retail license and then increase the available zoningareas for all license types thats about all thank you so much for taking the time to listen and to talk about this reallyimportant issue we appreciate you an look forward to listening to the meeting tonight thanks so much

My name is Daniel Finh license cultivatuer here in Nevada County Specialty cottage cultivation license I M calling torecommend that processing licenses added to the list of available permits in Grass Valley as the high cost

permitting a commercial building on my farm holds me back from being able to do it and i have need of all safe

processing its a really good license type it does not involve cultivation and it provides a lot of jobs entry leveljobs at

that and i think it could be good for the industry of grass sally even a single processing facility to potentially create

ten or a dozen jobs thank you for hearing me today have a good day

non starter from the beginning especially when in nevada city such tax does not exist many products with high THC

are in high demand and and less grass valley is able to meet the market demand both consumers and producers willChoose to shop and produce somewhere else again nobody cities for example THC tax is very importantconsidering when adopting an ordinance were the console is expecting job growth and new sources of revenue i

Hi my name is Shelley SALVATO tour and lve been 30 30 year resident of Nevada County raised my son s here

ive been an active volunteer with Nevada County Cannabis Alliance Over the years lm actively working at thedispensary And I my goal is to have a canvas manufacturing business producing high THC salves and lotions and

ive been looking for available locations in the proposed zoning however there is a lack of inventory in my last

search for location only brought up vacant land i plead with you guys to please open up the zoning to allowopportunities for locals to open businesses with a limited available parcels and restrictive zoning it seems that onlyout of county heavily funded businesses will be able to open along idaho maryland in light industrial zoning thereare few options were available parcels if only the residential set back was reduced from five hundred feet to twohundred feet may be helpful to understand that non retail cannabis businesses are not open to the public in veryselect regulations very strict regulations for security and out odor control to think that a youth would enter thesefacilities is mere nonsense it would not happen please dont handicap locals waiting to enter the industry due torational fears based on out dated Concerns related to prohibition These are professional businesses that deserve

the same respect as other businesses operating in light industrial My business would be no different than someonemaking lavender hand cream Also an aside as someone who aspires to produce high THC creams for topical use totreat skin conditions I highly recommend that the Council consider removing the THC tax at a future councilmeeting theres no way theres the tax revenue will be realized if that remains in fact i dont think any cannabisbusiness will choose to open if that tax remains THC tax will prove to be the the biggest handicap to the industrystarting in grass valley I have also been working in about a city at Elevation 2477Ihe last two years and I see howhigh are these taxes are already Just sales tax Nevada City tax and the excise tax and its really hurting theconsumers especially the elders of our community Who are you know really looking for high quality product so

hello good evening my name is john regalwith medicus industries in nevada city located on new mohawk road and

id like to thank the city council for taking my comments tonight i would like to comment on a few areas the first onewould be the medicinal designation that is under consideration its very important for dispenser used to have himadditional designation there are many patients out there that rely on cannabis products to ease their elements itsits a very real product very real solutions for these patients and adding a additional designation with allowdispensarys too provide for patients on a compassion program which allows patients to receive medicine at no costor very low cost to deal with their ailments the second area id like to touch on is licensing types and they needed tofill the for the farmers out there who lack the ability to process campus on their farmers lts very very expensive tobuild out the infrastructure having this type of ability For farmers will create job opportunities and new sources ofeconomic activity and job growth and an opportunity for the city of Grass Attic capitalized on that revenue streamTheres many many jobs that are needed in that realm the third would like to touch on is zoning and this is a bigone because the zone regulations that i reviewed that are currently under consideration Dont seem to really supportthe industry or provide for the best use of space currently dispensary s are limited to see three space heavy

commercial space which is more common with automotive shops roofing companies storage facilities etc and

theres a number of problems with that type of zoning besides the the fact that its there in more remote areas itallows for a greater Opportunity for robbery and theft and things of that nature it puts the patrons of this anddoesnt doesnt put them out in a place that they are more visible to law enforcement and able to have crimeprevention through a good design good public exposure further or not having properties zoned in areas that are

more prevalent it limits the available space for these businesses to operate and in fact will cause cost per square footto go up substantially because theres less available space and it will also displace other types of businesses thatneed to be in those spaces so it just seems to make sense to put dispensaries into an area that will supporteconomic growth alot of these dispensary s people that visit visit these dispensaries will also go to a dry cleanercoffee shop sandwich shop if theyre nearby and they need those services so i would like that to be considered as

well the fourth area is set backs set backs in place now were proposed setbacks it seems to me that you know

setbacks are certainly needed in there we are clearly are there for a reason however Cannabis businesses with theexception of retail are not out in front of the public manufacturing processing etc are usually off the main strip and

dispensarys are more in the retail sector these setbacks for processors and others just creates more problems forthem to find space and be able to afford that space that is city allows for a different set back limitation then grass

valley is proposing i would encourage you to look at those setbacks and work to be in line with those and finally fifthon my list here is the requirement on manufacturing businesses for their square footage limitation This this really

limits potential manufacturer

hi my name is maggie phillips born im a citizen of nevada county and have been watching local and state cannabispolicy developments for many years now but weve all learned over these past few years is that the statewideregulations for legal cannabis businesses are truly complex and unique to the canvas industry The City Council Dad

Hot Committee last met nearly four and a half years ago ln June of 2016 prior to state legalization Since then a

significant amount of state legislation and industry regulations have been issued an revised lts important for theCity Councilto make decisions and adopt an ordinance based on present day industry standards and market drivendata versus conversations from over four years ago Fears associated with prohibition and legalization have proven

to be unfounded and we can look to our neighbors in Nevada City as to what a successful emerging industry lookslike That is completely unnoticeable to the general community i care about the economic vitality of our communityand it seems were going to continue to experience increased economic stress due to covid cannabis is an essential

industry and has proven locally and statewide to stand out as a pillar of economic stability during economic

hardship i look forward to grass valley and bracing this industry and appreciate your time and consideration thisevening i would encourage the council to make decisions tonight that will help build a new industry and provide

Fresh opportunities for tax revenue Please look at the reality of what a healthy highly regulated industry looks like

and do not rely on stories of what the industry was feared to look like prior to legalization Lets put our economicfuture 1st Thank you

hello my name is FORREST HURD and im calling to leave Public Comments for tonight agenda item pertaining tocannabis allowance in grass valley many people might have heard about my son stylist HURD during the measure wwork And ongoing work in Nevada County as pertains to the rights of children whose lives depend on access tomedical products that are based in cannabis im calling tonight because i am just very concerned about Grass

Valleys decision to not allow for medical cannabis in their communities And ljust want to hopefully reiterate thatchildren like my son Silas who was in the papers and on the news whose life genuinely depends on access Live in

our community here in Grass Valley and when we only allow adult use essentially what were doing is saying that all

access is available except for those whose lives may depend on it Now I know that when people are not really upto state with the science and the situation that pertains to children in cannabis they hear the word children and theyget nervous but the reality is children with these conditions you dont hear about adults because they dont live tobecome adults Without treatment options when all other medical treatment options and we have neurologistsspecialists who are giving parents guidance in these treatments in all they need is a place to have safe in legal access

i would encourage grass valley who Not make it a crime in their community for a parent to legally save their childslife Please consider adding medical do your allowance is in your community Our community because Without thatwe are doing all of the four profit activity and none of the moral and ethical activities that comes along withbringing cannabis in our society please also consider expanding zoning for businesses reducing set back add a

processing license type and remove arbitrary requirements on manufacturing business is all of these things add upto more access for those who need it most and no one wants to go home at night and say yeah we allowed all of theparties but no option for the most desperate in vulnerable in our community thank you

hello my name is jonathan collier and i live at one oh six nine six cedar song road im a former board member thenevada county cannabis lines and the california grows association and the author of the craft kansas revolution first i

hope that this comment as well as all others are given that fold deal iwas somewhat appalled that during theplanning commission that the detail and death my comments as well as many others with her face in a single

sentence i hope the public process will be more fully respected tonight as someone who has had the privilege to sit

with various grass valley city council members and staff regarding what counts regulations would look like in the cityof grass valley ive always respected and appreciated the proship patience learning by the experience of others andrespecting the wishes of the constituency that the city is adopted it has now been over four years since many ofthose conversations began Cannabis has gained overwhelming acceptance throughout our country and across theroad There are still many difficulties in our state especially those associated with the traditional market that persists

primarily because the majority of jurisdictions although having popular support had failed to move fonruard withadopting the appropriate regulations lm encouraged that Grass Valley is finally given the opportunity for legal

entrepreneurs and professionals and mechanics industry to operate within the city limits however i am concerned

that this progress is in appearance only i say this because the canvas orders can be proved tonight that is so

restrictive but only in a handful of businesses can move forward if that i researched available properties that wouldbe available to kansas businesses given the current restrictions zoning and the set backs from residence in schoolsthere about thirty total units that can be used for cannabis permits within the city limits of these none are availablefor rent and one is available for purchase so in reality we are writing in order to allow for one possible business tooperate lt is the city strategy to restrict the number and size of business to make it friendlier to local businesses This

is exactly the opposite of what will happen with the current policy since there are so few available space is it willtake extremely well financed large businesses that youre a promise whether thats the purchasing a property orbuying out leases from existing business is something we also do not want to see these rates that we think theheavily restricted zoning and set back limitations that are being proposed send it to be allowed in C two zoning and

reduce or remove the set backs from residential zones we do not have to look far for successful models of regulated

cannabis industry i know there is a disinclination to look at nevada city as an example but at the end of the day theyserve much of the same community in savannah city s adopted their owners in twenty eighteen that had been jail

complaints and many of the fiercest opponents are now spanish allies once theyve witnessed the professionalism

and standards are these business owners if you create a broken system you are either not attract any partners orworse the wrong type of partners Go to system that works and youll be well rewarded there are a lot of wonderfuloperators waiting to be in their businesses Lets let them do it Thank you so much

aP25 digital system (mixed mode) is the best solution for its needs based on current and evolvingtechnology This standard will help ensure that the City has a common operating platform that

maximizes compatibility with vendor equipment and other regional LMR systems well into thefuture

The animals are terrified as it is and when the shooting starts they literally start screaming (not just barking)It breaks my heart and I wanted to let you know that I was hoping you could figure out a solution to this I do think theanimal shelter is improving in the care it is providing but the shooting is just toxic for these terrified animalsRespectfullySusan Clark5307988215

hello my name is DIANA GAMZON and im executive director of the nevada county cannabis alliance a tradeassociation representing over three hundred members of the local cannabis industry we provide educational supportand public policy initiatives that promote a thriving local cannabis industry in the county i want to thank the grass

valley is to be council and grass valley s to the staff for your openness to welcome a cannabis industry into the citylimits after joining the effort to establish a regulated cannabis industry in about accounting we understand the grass

valley is moving cautiously into canvas regulation and with respect to this attitude we have modified ourrecommendations tonight to help balance what is needed to start a cannabis industry with the communityconsiderations The current proposed zoning and setbacks eliminate viable available partials in which cannabisbusinesses would be able to operate We encourage the Council to consider expanding zoning in areas withcompatible uses for cannabis businesses and other light industrial allowances such as the use of overlays in generalindustrial business parks in special development areas With strict limits on the available parcels were welcominginto the community well funded out of town operators versus helping locals open businesses Please ensure thisordinance is iaccessible to local residents lying to operate craft cannabis businesses by reducing the residential set

back from 500 feet to 250 feet Additional light industrial parcels become available While still providing the city withthe desired residential set back buffer in addition we strongly recommend expanding the zoning for retaildispensaries the zoning is currently limited to heavy commercial and light industrial with common businesses such

as auto repairs heavy machine suppliers and industrial storage dispensaries operated the cash only business in

locating these businesses and heavy industrial areas composed risk of less visibility from law enforcement this puts

both employees and patrons at risk the economic ripple effect of dispensary s have been well documented in

communities throughout the county country and there is a direct correlation between money spent its trendingrestaurants shopped and special specialty stores the ordinance can serve as a foundation for creative careeropportunities for locals examples of jobs include chief financial officers Scientist supply chain managers andmarketing specialist specialists Testing labs often hire PhD positions the limit on the sides of manufacturingbusinesses has not yet been justified and it limits entrepreneurship and innovation the restriction also does not allowbusinesses to pivot in the future the twenty eighteen grass valley strategic plan continually appoint appoints todiversifying the economy providing opportunity for non traditional retail supporting small farmers and providingopportunities for industrial businesses to thrive in addition line four B eleven express is the goalto evaluate theeconomic social and community impacts of a dispensary we are here to today to advocate for an industry that is in

alignment with with the existing goals set out and adopted by the city We encourage the Council to consider thecomments provided by the industry this evening as you deliberate We recommend that the Council vote to considerthe recommendations that have been provided Thank you for your consideration

hello good evening my name is basil mcmahon i live at one eight five seven two is trying to place in unincorporatednevada county im calling to encourage got five city council to consider a few changes to the ordinance has

proposed Yeah lm an owner and operator of a cannabis distribution and manufacturing business in Nevada Citycalled Rough and ready goods and we have a facility here lts about 5000 square feet By no means is it a large

space Half of our facility here is for our distribution business with one license and approximately the other half ofthe manufacturing license And I understand that this citys proposal is to limit the size as the square footageallowed for manufacturing businesses i dont understand the justification forthis restriction i can understand thatyou know perhaps the rationale for for setbacks or for restricting the zoning but what is the rationale for restrictingthe size of the manufacturing business and if there is a rationale why why is that limits for at five thousand squarefeet and not say ten or fifteen thousand square feet i dont expect there to be enormous manufacturing facilitiesgetting set up in grass valley its just not actually all that practical most businesses operate in moderately sized

facilities but to keep it to you know a couple thousand square feet would really restrict the ability of thosebusinesses to succeed similarly i encourage you strongly to reconsider the proposal to tax cannabis based on itspotency there are a lot of products on the market which why are you know use responsibly and are more potentthan seventeen percent it could be at absolute deal breaker for businesses trying to get set up and to follow therules and participate in the legal marketplace and to pay taxes so i strongly encourage you to reconsider thatparticular portion of your morning thank you very much for your consideration have a good day

ordinance really severely limit the opportunities for cannabis businesses to take hold and flourish in your city lt willdrive up the price of real estate or those select few properties to the exclusion of all other properties i wouldencourage you to do put together an ordinance that will help and industry actually succeeded in grass valley And ldlike to close by thanking those of you on the Council for your service to this community and for consideration of thiscontroversial topic in the Community of Grass Valley Thank you

Tuesday November 102020 551 PM

Public CommentsCannabis Business Ordinance public Comment

Dear member of the Grass Valley City Council

My name is Maria Herrera Im once again submitting a public comment similar to my email to the Grass Valley Planning

Commission hoping this time my public comment could be taken into consideration I am a board member of theNevada City Cannabis Alliance and for the past four years I have worked as a consultant helping cannabis businesses

acquire local and state licenses and set up operations in Nevada County throughout California and other states wherethere are existing cannabis regulations such as Oregon and lllinois

I commend city staff and the citys efforts to begin the process of establishing a cannabis business ordinance that has thepotential to positively impact the citys economic development goals

However as written the ordinance has the potential to stifle the benefits the city could potentially reap from having a

cannabis business ordinance

First the zoning restrictions in the current draft of the ordinance could inadvertently create a gentrification effect thatcould displace existing businesses in the proposed green zones When zoning regulations such as this are establishedin such a restrictive manner landlords in those areas would be willing to evict or displace existing businesses under theflawed premise that they could charge a higher rent per square footage to cannabis tenants than they are currentlygetting from existing tenants This has proven true in places like Sacramento which experienced the displacement ofother manufacturing industries and services such as auto body shops to give way to higher paying tenants in thecannabis industry some of which in the end couldnt bear the burden of higher rents This would neither serve residents

of Grass Valley existing businesses or future cannabis businesses

Reducing the residential setback from 500 to 250 feet could make more parcels available for the proposed use

Second the restriction on the square footage allowed for manufacturing businesses (4000 square feet) is arbitrary anddoes not take into consideration the space needed to operate a compliant cannabis manufacturing facility that is safeand congruent with state requirements

Third the restriction for distribution companies on their ability to distribute to other cannabis businesses such as

manufacturers and other distribution companies is also arbitrary and does not take into consideration how the cannabisindustry supply chain works Many cannabis distribution companies focus on bulk sales or wholesaling while othersprefer to focus on packaging and labeling products that are ready for distribution to retail As city staff and legal advisorssurely must know and as per state regulations cannabis retailers can only receive products packaged in its final formwhich includes weight and dosage restrictions tamper evident sealing and full information panel Restricting what typeof businesses cannabis distributors can compliantly and legally distribute products will greatly hinder the businessability to diversiff based on facility layout and expertise These kinds of restrictions would not allow for a healthy and

thriving supply chain distribution model

Lastly I will let other speakers touch on the draft ordinances lack of access for patients or Medical Use which wouldeliminate access to those needing medical cannabis most among other points that would create barriers to entry formany cannabis businesses

Yes good evening My name is Brad P Simer I actually live in Alta Sierra on Brewer Rd but I want to comment onthis evenings agenda My concerns as being the former vice chairman for the Americans for Safe Access GroupComma i think its extremely important that we expand zoning basically we have limited commercial space andallowing the zoning To allow to you know being commercial and neighborhood Flex center and allow for a nonretail businesses within the within the special development areas is important thing said facts i think that we shouldkeep the set backs for educational institutions an reduce residential setbacks from five hundred to two hundred fiftyfeet if you look at the cannabis businesses that are existing they have extremely good relationships with all of theirneighbors and i think that would be maintained going with in residential Medical use my my whole thing involved inthe cannabis industry has been based on medical use And I think that we should have a retail option to promoteaccess for medical cannabis patients ive always worked in that way and i think thats an important thing i wouldalso like to see the processing license added to fulfill on need for local cannabis farmers basically their ability to alsoprocess materials on their farms a lot of times they have to ship that material off the farms which is anotherextensive cost involved in the project and then basically id like to see removed any of the arbitrary requirements onmanufacturing including square footage limitations as well as restrictions from manufacturing licenses Holding are

also a retail license i would like for this to move forward i appreciate your time this evening and i look fonruard toseeing progress on these issues thank you very

Good evening I am calling to leave a public comment in regards to the cannabis ordinance that the Grass Valley CityCouncil will be considering tonight My name is Sarahs Mail I am in Nevada County resident and an attorney whopractices in Nevada City and around Nevada County My law firm Origin group law works primarily with cannabisbusinesses who hold or are in the process of obtaining local permit and state license is related to the cannabisindustry i want to start by thanking the city council for its willingness to consider cannabis businesses within the cityof grass valley i really believe that expanded access to cannabis permits and license types within the county willallow revenue to stay within the county and also provide the permitted cultivators and the unincorporated area ofnevada county and increased ability to work with local distributors manufacturers testing laboratories others in thesupply chain and allow us to keep those revenues within the county by opening up some options in the city of grass

valley i do have a few specific recommendations related to the proposed ordinance the first is that i stronglyencourage the city council To allow retailers to obtain both medicinal and adult use license designations themedicinal designation allows cannabis patients to purchase additional amounts of cannabis in cannabis productsthat may be necessary for patients medical needs in which are otherwise inaccessible Because there are morerestrictive limitations on amounts that may be purchased under an adult use only licensed retailer this second itemthat i would like to speak about relates to the license types i strongly encourage you to add a processing license

many nevada county cannabis farmers cant process their own cannabis plants following harvest on their ownproperties because they dont have appropriate facilities and so allowing processing facilities within grass valleywould just allow some additional options and again keep some revenue within the county as well as the local

farmers business so they dont need to go to folks in sacramento in other areas the last thing i want to mention is i

would ask that you remove the arbitrary requirements relating to manufacturing businesses including the squarefootage limitation and then the and the limitation also holding a retail license and then increase the available zoningareas for all license types thats about all thank you so much for taking the time to listen and to talk about this reallyimportant issue we appreciate you an look forward to listening to the meeting tonight thanks so much

Hi my name is Shelley SALVATO tour and lve been 30 30 year resident of Nevada County raised my son s here

ive been an active volunteer with Nevada County Cannabis Alliance Over the years lm actively working at thedispensary And I my goal is to have a canvas manufacturing business producing high THC salves and lotions and

ive been looking for available locations in the proposed zoning however there is a lack of inventory in my last

search for location only brought up vacant land i plead with you guys to please open up the zoning to allowopportunities for locals to open businesses with a limited available parcels and restrictive zoning it seems that onlyout of county heavily funded businesses will be able to open along idaho maryland in light industrial zoning thereare few options were available parcels if only the residential set back was reduced from five hundred feet to twohundred feet may be helpful to understand that non retail cannabis businesses are not open to the public in veryselect regulations very strict regulations for security and out odor control to think that a youth would enter thesefacilities is mere nonsense it would not happen please dont handicap locals waiting to enter the industry due torational fears based on out dated Concerns related to prohibition These are professional businesses that deserve

the same respect as other businesses operating in light industrial My business would be no different than someonemaking lavender hand cream Also an aside as someone who aspires to produce high THC creams for topical use totreat skin conditions I highly recommend that the Council consider removing the THC tax at a future councilmeeting theres no way theres the tax revenue will be realized if that remains in fact i dont think any cannabisbusiness will choose to open if that tax remains THC tax will prove to be the the biggest handicap to the industrystarting in grass valley I have also been working in about a city at Elevation 2477Ihe last two years and I see howhigh are these taxes are already Just sales tax Nevada City tax and the excise tax and its really hurting theconsumers especially the elders of our community Who are you know really looking for high quality product so

hello good evening my name is john regalwith medicus industries in nevada city located on new mohawk road and

id like to thank the city council for taking my comments tonight i would like to comment on a few areas the first onewould be the medicinal designation that is under consideration its very important for dispenser used to have himadditional designation there are many patients out there that rely on cannabis products to ease their elements itsits a very real product very real solutions for these patients and adding a additional designation with allowdispensarys too provide for patients on a compassion program which allows patients to receive medicine at no costor very low cost to deal with their ailments the second area id like to touch on is licensing types and they needed tofill the for the farmers out there who lack the ability to process campus on their farmers lts very very expensive tobuild out the infrastructure having this type of ability For farmers will create job opportunities and new sources ofeconomic activity and job growth and an opportunity for the city of Grass Attic capitalized on that revenue streamTheres many many jobs that are needed in that realm the third would like to touch on is zoning and this is a bigone because the zone regulations that i reviewed that are currently under consideration Dont seem to really supportthe industry or provide for the best use of space currently dispensary s are limited to see three space heavy

commercial space which is more common with automotive shops roofing companies storage facilities etc and

theres a number of problems with that type of zoning besides the the fact that its there in more remote areas itallows for a greater Opportunity for robbery and theft and things of that nature it puts the patrons of this anddoesnt doesnt put them out in a place that they are more visible to law enforcement and able to have crimeprevention through a good design good public exposure further or not having properties zoned in areas that are

more prevalent it limits the available space for these businesses to operate and in fact will cause cost per square footto go up substantially because theres less available space and it will also displace other types of businesses thatneed to be in those spaces so it just seems to make sense to put dispensaries into an area that will supporteconomic growth alot of these dispensary s people that visit visit these dispensaries will also go to a dry cleanercoffee shop sandwich shop if theyre nearby and they need those services so i would like that to be considered as

well the fourth area is set backs set backs in place now were proposed setbacks it seems to me that you know

setbacks are certainly needed in there we are clearly are there for a reason however Cannabis businesses with theexception of retail are not out in front of the public manufacturing processing etc are usually off the main strip and

dispensarys are more in the retail sector these setbacks for processors and others just creates more problems forthem to find space and be able to afford that space that is city allows for a different set back limitation then grass

valley is proposing i would encourage you to look at those setbacks and work to be in line with those and finally fifthon my list here is the requirement on manufacturing businesses for their square footage limitation This this really

limits potential manufacturer

hi my name is maggie phillips born im a citizen of nevada county and have been watching local and state cannabispolicy developments for many years now but weve all learned over these past few years is that the statewideregulations for legal cannabis businesses are truly complex and unique to the canvas industry The City Council Dad

Hot Committee last met nearly four and a half years ago ln June of 2016 prior to state legalization Since then a

significant amount of state legislation and industry regulations have been issued an revised lts important for theCity Councilto make decisions and adopt an ordinance based on present day industry standards and market drivendata versus conversations from over four years ago Fears associated with prohibition and legalization have proven

to be unfounded and we can look to our neighbors in Nevada City as to what a successful emerging industry lookslike That is completely unnoticeable to the general community i care about the economic vitality of our communityand it seems were going to continue to experience increased economic stress due to covid cannabis is an essential

industry and has proven locally and statewide to stand out as a pillar of economic stability during economic

Fresh opportunities for tax revenue Please look at the reality of what a healthy highly regulated industry looks like

hello my name is FORREST HURD and im calling to leave Public Comments for tonight agenda item pertaining tocannabis allowance in grass valley many people might have heard about my son stylist HURD during the measure wwork And ongoing work in Nevada County as pertains to the rights of children whose lives depend on access tomedical products that are based in cannabis im calling tonight because i am just very concerned about Grass

Valleys decision to not allow for medical cannabis in their communities And ljust want to hopefully reiterate thatchildren like my son Silas who was in the papers and on the news whose life genuinely depends on access Live in

our community here in Grass Valley and when we only allow adult use essentially what were doing is saying that all

access is available except for those whose lives may depend on it Now I know that when people are not really upto state with the science and the situation that pertains to children in cannabis they hear the word children and theyget nervous but the reality is children with these conditions you dont hear about adults because they dont live tobecome adults Without treatment options when all other medical treatment options and we have neurologistsspecialists who are giving parents guidance in these treatments in all they need is a place to have safe in legal access

i would encourage grass valley who Not make it a crime in their community for a parent to legally save their childslife Please consider adding medical do your allowance is in your community Our community because Without thatwe are doing all of the four profit activity and none of the moral and ethical activities that comes along withbringing cannabis in our society please also consider expanding zoning for businesses reducing set back add a

processing license type and remove arbitrary requirements on manufacturing business is all of these things add upto more access for those who need it most and no one wants to go home at night and say yeah we allowed all of theparties but no option for the most desperate in vulnerable in our community thank you

hello my name is jonathan collier and i live at one oh six nine six cedar song road im a former board member thenevada county cannabis lines and the california grows association and the author of the craft kansas revolution first i

hope that this comment as well as all others are given that fold deal iwas somewhat appalled that during theplanning commission that the detail and death my comments as well as many others with her face in a single

sentence i hope the public process will be more fully respected tonight as someone who has had the privilege to sit

with various grass valley city council members and staff regarding what counts regulations would look like in the cityof grass valley ive always respected and appreciated the proship patience learning by the experience of others andrespecting the wishes of the constituency that the city is adopted it has now been over four years since many ofthose conversations began Cannabis has gained overwhelming acceptance throughout our country and across theroad There are still many difficulties in our state especially those associated with the traditional market that persists

primarily because the majority of jurisdictions although having popular support had failed to move fonruard withadopting the appropriate regulations lm encouraged that Grass Valley is finally given the opportunity for legal

entrepreneurs and professionals and mechanics industry to operate within the city limits however i am concerned

that this progress is in appearance only i say this because the canvas orders can be proved tonight that is so

restrictive but only in a handful of businesses can move forward if that i researched available properties that wouldbe available to kansas businesses given the current restrictions zoning and the set backs from residence in schoolsthere about thirty total units that can be used for cannabis permits within the city limits of these none are availablefor rent and one is available for purchase so in reality we are writing in order to allow for one possible business tooperate lt is the city strategy to restrict the number and size of business to make it friendlier to local businesses This

is exactly the opposite of what will happen with the current policy since there are so few available space is it willtake extremely well financed large businesses that youre a promise whether thats the purchasing a property orbuying out leases from existing business is something we also do not want to see these rates that we think theheavily restricted zoning and set back limitations that are being proposed send it to be allowed in C two zoning and

reduce or remove the set backs from residential zones we do not have to look far for successful models of regulated

cannabis industry i know there is a disinclination to look at nevada city as an example but at the end of the day theyserve much of the same community in savannah city s adopted their owners in twenty eighteen that had been jail

complaints and many of the fiercest opponents are now spanish allies once theyve witnessed the professionalism

and standards are these business owners if you create a broken system you are either not attract any partners orworse the wrong type of partners Go to system that works and youll be well rewarded there are a lot of wonderfuloperators waiting to be in their businesses Lets let them do it Thank you so much

Due to delinquencies in the payment ofreassessments the revenues to repay the Bonds were sinceSeptember of 2014 less than the scheduled debt service on the Bonds which resulted indeficiencies in the revenues available to pay the scheduled debt service on the Authority BondsThe Bonds matured on September 22020 and on that date available funds were used to pay aportion of the debt service then due on the Bonds but there were insufficient funds available topay the full amount of the principal and interest then due on the Bonds The shortfall in paymentof the debt sen ice on the Bonds resulted in a shortfall in revenues to pay the Authority Bonds so

that the Authority defaulted in the payment of the debt seryice due on the Authority Bonds

The Fiscal Agent Agreement pursuant to which the Bonds were issued provides that in the eventof a delinquency on the Bonds such delinquency shall be paid from the first available moneys inthe Redemption Fund established underthe Fiscal Agent Agreernent arising from the collection ofdelinquent reassessments There currently are two delinquent reassessments but collection of thedelinquent reassessments by the City is uncertain at this time and may or may not occur

As with all things technological BWCs and their supporting software and technology iscontinuously evolving GVPD uses a suite of backend support products in addition to Axonhardware Video files from Axon BWC devices are seamlessly uploaded to the evidencecomsecure cloud storage environment We share evidence with the District Attorneys office througha secure evidencecom portal and manage our video files online limiting the amount of humaninteraction needed to administer the program Nonetheless the management of this amount ofdata does take time and effort but through the well-designed technology we rue able to maintainour records for seamless use and criminal court discovery purposes

The Axon contract is coming up for renewal As such the police deparhnent staffhave negotiatedwith Axon for a new five (5) year contract This contract will include in each officer-level licensethe updating of Axons conducted electrical weapon for each officer (aka Taser) Having thelatest technology in this area helps reduce incidents of force and keeps officers and members ofthe public safe Axon technology is integrated across their platforms Included in updatedhardware will be the capability to automatically activate BWCs in proximity upon drawing of afirearm as well as initiating the off safe function of a CEW We will also have the opportunity

operates a Land Mobile Radio (LMR) infrastructure that services Police Department users across

the City This infrastructure was first installed several decades ago and the City is encountering

increasing issues with the performance of the infrastructure The current systern does not complywith state and federal regulations for transmission of sensitive law enforcement communication

The Police Department is looking to upgrade the systern to achieve a higher level of service in ourmission to serve the public with this critical communication platform

Motorola Solutions provides enterprise grade mission critical radio systems to law and fireagencies throughout the State of California the United States and abroad Each law enforcement

agency has unique needs for custom goods or services based on a number of factors Staffcompleted extensive research into viable radio solutions including research about existing and

planned partner agency radio infrastructure availability of reliable and quality service and

efficiently and effectively monitor and maintain the syston The department has determined that

aP25 digital system (mixed mode) is the best solution for its needs based on current and evolvingtechnology This standard will help ensure that the City has a common operating platform that

maximizes compatibility with vendor equipment and other regional LMR systems well into thefuture

To best meet the functional and operational needs of the department Motorola Solutions proposal

includes a combination ofhardware software and services Specifically this solution forthe Grass

Valley Police Department provides

The animals are terrified as it is and when the shooting starts they literally start screaming (not just barking)It breaks my heart and I wanted to let you know that I was hoping you could figure out a solution to this I do think theanimal shelter is improving in the care it is providing but the shooting is just toxic for these terrified animalsRespectfullySusan Clark5307988215

hello my name is DIANA GAMZON and im executive director of the nevada county cannabis alliance a tradeassociation representing over three hundred members of the local cannabis industry we provide educational supportand public policy initiatives that promote a thriving local cannabis industry in the county i want to thank the grass

valley is to be council and grass valley s to the staff for your openness to welcome a cannabis industry into the citylimits after joining the effort to establish a regulated cannabis industry in about accounting we understand the grass

valley is moving cautiously into canvas regulation and with respect to this attitude we have modified ourrecommendations tonight to help balance what is needed to start a cannabis industry with the communityconsiderations The current proposed zoning and setbacks eliminate viable available partials in which cannabisbusinesses would be able to operate We encourage the Council to consider expanding zoning in areas withcompatible uses for cannabis businesses and other light industrial allowances such as the use of overlays in generalindustrial business parks in special development areas With strict limits on the available parcels were welcominginto the community well funded out of town operators versus helping locals open businesses Please ensure thisordinance is iaccessible to local residents lying to operate craft cannabis businesses by reducing the residential set

back from 500 feet to 250 feet Additional light industrial parcels become available While still providing the city withthe desired residential set back buffer in addition we strongly recommend expanding the zoning for retaildispensaries the zoning is currently limited to heavy commercial and light industrial with common businesses such

as auto repairs heavy machine suppliers and industrial storage dispensaries operated the cash only business in

locating these businesses and heavy industrial areas composed risk of less visibility from law enforcement this puts

both employees and patrons at risk the economic ripple effect of dispensary s have been well documented in

communities throughout the county country and there is a direct correlation between money spent its trendingrestaurants shopped and special specialty stores the ordinance can serve as a foundation for creative careeropportunities for locals examples of jobs include chief financial officers Scientist supply chain managers andmarketing specialist specialists Testing labs often hire PhD positions the limit on the sides of manufacturingbusinesses has not yet been justified and it limits entrepreneurship and innovation the restriction also does not allowbusinesses to pivot in the future the twenty eighteen grass valley strategic plan continually appoint appoints todiversifying the economy providing opportunity for non traditional retail supporting small farmers and providingopportunities for industrial businesses to thrive in addition line four B eleven express is the goalto evaluate theeconomic social and community impacts of a dispensary we are here to today to advocate for an industry that is in

alignment with with the existing goals set out and adopted by the city We encourage the Council to consider thecomments provided by the industry this evening as you deliberate We recommend that the Council vote to considerthe recommendations that have been provided Thank you for your consideration

hello good evening my name is basil mcmahon i live at one eight five seven two is trying to place in unincorporatednevada county im calling to encourage got five city council to consider a few changes to the ordinance has

proposed Yeah lm an owner and operator of a cannabis distribution and manufacturing business in Nevada Citycalled Rough and ready goods and we have a facility here lts about 5000 square feet By no means is it a large

space Half of our facility here is for our distribution business with one license and approximately the other half ofthe manufacturing license And I understand that this citys proposal is to limit the size as the square footageallowed for manufacturing businesses i dont understand the justification forthis restriction i can understand thatyou know perhaps the rationale for for setbacks or for restricting the zoning but what is the rationale for restrictingthe size of the manufacturing business and if there is a rationale why why is that limits for at five thousand squarefeet and not say ten or fifteen thousand square feet i dont expect there to be enormous manufacturing facilitiesgetting set up in grass valley its just not actually all that practical most businesses operate in moderately sized

facilities but to keep it to you know a couple thousand square feet would really restrict the ability of thosebusinesses to succeed similarly i encourage you strongly to reconsider the proposal to tax cannabis based on itspotency there are a lot of products on the market which why are you know use responsibly and are more potentthan seventeen percent it could be at absolute deal breaker for businesses trying to get set up and to follow therules and participate in the legal marketplace and to pay taxes so i strongly encourage you to reconsider thatparticular portion of your morning thank you very much for your consideration have a good day

ordinance really severely limit the opportunities for cannabis businesses to take hold and flourish in your city lt willdrive up the price of real estate or those select few properties to the exclusion of all other properties i wouldencourage you to do put together an ordinance that will help and industry actually succeeded in grass valley And ldlike to close by thanking those of you on the Council for your service to this community and for consideration of thiscontroversial topic in the Community of Grass Valley Thank you

Public CommentsCannabis Business Ordinance public Comment

Dear member of the Grass Valley City Council

My name is Maria Herrera Im once again submitting a public comment similar to my email to the Grass Valley Planning

Commission hoping this time my public comment could be taken into consideration I am a board member of theNevada City Cannabis Alliance and for the past four years I have worked as a consultant helping cannabis businesses

acquire local and state licenses and set up operations in Nevada County throughout California and other states wherethere are existing cannabis regulations such as Oregon and lllinois

I commend city staff and the citys efforts to begin the process of establishing a cannabis business ordinance that has thepotential to positively impact the citys economic development goals

However as written the ordinance has the potential to stifle the benefits the city could potentially reap from having a

cannabis business ordinance

First the zoning restrictions in the current draft of the ordinance could inadvertently create a gentrification effect thatcould displace existing businesses in the proposed green zones When zoning regulations such as this are establishedin such a restrictive manner landlords in those areas would be willing to evict or displace existing businesses under theflawed premise that they could charge a higher rent per square footage to cannabis tenants than they are currentlygetting from existing tenants This has proven true in places like Sacramento which experienced the displacement ofother manufacturing industries and services such as auto body shops to give way to higher paying tenants in thecannabis industry some of which in the end couldnt bear the burden of higher rents This would neither serve residents

of Grass Valley existing businesses or future cannabis businesses

Reducing the residential setback from 500 to 250 feet could make more parcels available for the proposed use

Second the restriction on the square footage allowed for manufacturing businesses (4000 square feet) is arbitrary anddoes not take into consideration the space needed to operate a compliant cannabis manufacturing facility that is safeand congruent with state requirements

Third the restriction for distribution companies on their ability to distribute to other cannabis businesses such as

manufacturers and other distribution companies is also arbitrary and does not take into consideration how the cannabisindustry supply chain works Many cannabis distribution companies focus on bulk sales or wholesaling while othersprefer to focus on packaging and labeling products that are ready for distribution to retail As city staff and legal advisorssurely must know and as per state regulations cannabis retailers can only receive products packaged in its final formwhich includes weight and dosage restrictions tamper evident sealing and full information panel Restricting what typeof businesses cannabis distributors can compliantly and legally distribute products will greatly hinder the businessability to diversiff based on facility layout and expertise These kinds of restrictions would not allow for a healthy and

thriving supply chain distribution model

Lastly I will let other speakers touch on the draft ordinances lack of access for patients or Medical Use which wouldeliminate access to those needing medical cannabis most among other points that would create barriers to entry formany cannabis businesses

Yes good evening My name is Brad P Simer I actually live in Alta Sierra on Brewer Rd but I want to comment onthis evenings agenda My concerns as being the former vice chairman for the Americans for Safe Access GroupComma i think its extremely important that we expand zoning basically we have limited commercial space andallowing the zoning To allow to you know being commercial and neighborhood Flex center and allow for a nonretail businesses within the within the special development areas is important thing said facts i think that we shouldkeep the set backs for educational institutions an reduce residential setbacks from five hundred to two hundred fiftyfeet if you look at the cannabis businesses that are existing they have extremely good relationships with all of theirneighbors and i think that would be maintained going with in residential Medical use my my whole thing involved inthe cannabis industry has been based on medical use And I think that we should have a retail option to promoteaccess for medical cannabis patients ive always worked in that way and i think thats an important thing i wouldalso like to see the processing license added to fulfill on need for local cannabis farmers basically their ability to alsoprocess materials on their farms a lot of times they have to ship that material off the farms which is anotherextensive cost involved in the project and then basically id like to see removed any of the arbitrary requirements onmanufacturing including square footage limitations as well as restrictions from manufacturing licenses Holding are

also a retail license i would like for this to move forward i appreciate your time this evening and i look fonruard toseeing progress on these issues thank you very

Good evening I am calling to leave a public comment in regards to the cannabis ordinance that the Grass Valley CityCouncil will be considering tonight My name is Sarahs Mail I am in Nevada County resident and an attorney whopractices in Nevada City and around Nevada County My law firm Origin group law works primarily with cannabisbusinesses who hold or are in the process of obtaining local permit and state license is related to the cannabisindustry i want to start by thanking the city council for its willingness to consider cannabis businesses within the cityof grass valley i really believe that expanded access to cannabis permits and license types within the county willallow revenue to stay within the county and also provide the permitted cultivators and the unincorporated area ofnevada county and increased ability to work with local distributors manufacturers testing laboratories others in thesupply chain and allow us to keep those revenues within the county by opening up some options in the city of grass

valley i do have a few specific recommendations related to the proposed ordinance the first is that i stronglyencourage the city council To allow retailers to obtain both medicinal and adult use license designations themedicinal designation allows cannabis patients to purchase additional amounts of cannabis in cannabis productsthat may be necessary for patients medical needs in which are otherwise inaccessible Because there are morerestrictive limitations on amounts that may be purchased under an adult use only licensed retailer this second itemthat i would like to speak about relates to the license types i strongly encourage you to add a processing license

many nevada county cannabis farmers cant process their own cannabis plants following harvest on their ownproperties because they dont have appropriate facilities and so allowing processing facilities within grass valleywould just allow some additional options and again keep some revenue within the county as well as the local

farmers business so they dont need to go to folks in sacramento in other areas the last thing i want to mention is i

would ask that you remove the arbitrary requirements relating to manufacturing businesses including the squarefootage limitation and then the and the limitation also holding a retail license and then increase the available zoningareas for all license types thats about all thank you so much for taking the time to listen and to talk about this reallyimportant issue we appreciate you an look forward to listening to the meeting tonight thanks so much

My name is Daniel Finh license cultivatuer here in Nevada County Specialty cottage cultivation license I M calling torecommend that processing licenses added to the list of available permits in Grass Valley as the high cost

permitting a commercial building on my farm holds me back from being able to do it and i have need of all safe

processing its a really good license type it does not involve cultivation and it provides a lot of jobs entry leveljobs at

that and i think it could be good for the industry of grass sally even a single processing facility to potentially create

ten or a dozen jobs thank you for hearing me today have a good day

able to expand beyond nevada city in providing education and access to donated local cannabis medicine for thosepatients in critical needs id like to operator ialso asked please include cannabis processing license types in thisordinance the licensed cultivators in nevada county need additional processing services locali The cost of building an

non starter from the beginning especially when in nevada city such tax does not exist many products with high THC

are in high demand and and less grass valley is able to meet the market demand both consumers and producers willChoose to shop and produce somewhere else again nobody cities for example THC tax is very importantconsidering when adopting an ordinance were the console is expecting job growth and new sources of revenue i

Hi my name is Shelley SALVATO tour and lve been 30 30 year resident of Nevada County raised my son s here

ive been an active volunteer with Nevada County Cannabis Alliance Over the years lm actively working at thedispensary And I my goal is to have a canvas manufacturing business producing high THC salves and lotions and

ive been looking for available locations in the proposed zoning however there is a lack of inventory in my last

search for location only brought up vacant land i plead with you guys to please open up the zoning to allowopportunities for locals to open businesses with a limited available parcels and restrictive zoning it seems that onlyout of county heavily funded businesses will be able to open along idaho maryland in light industrial zoning thereare few options were available parcels if only the residential set back was reduced from five hundred feet to twohundred feet may be helpful to understand that non retail cannabis businesses are not open to the public in veryselect regulations very strict regulations for security and out odor control to think that a youth would enter thesefacilities is mere nonsense it would not happen please dont handicap locals waiting to enter the industry due torational fears based on out dated Concerns related to prohibition These are professional businesses that deserve

the same respect as other businesses operating in light industrial My business would be no different than someonemaking lavender hand cream Also an aside as someone who aspires to produce high THC creams for topical use totreat skin conditions I highly recommend that the Council consider removing the THC tax at a future councilmeeting theres no way theres the tax revenue will be realized if that remains in fact i dont think any cannabisbusiness will choose to open if that tax remains THC tax will prove to be the the biggest handicap to the industrystarting in grass valley I have also been working in about a city at Elevation 2477Ihe last two years and I see howhigh are these taxes are already Just sales tax Nevada City tax and the excise tax and its really hurting theconsumers especially the elders of our community Who are you know really looking for high quality product so

hello good evening my name is john regalwith medicus industries in nevada city located on new mohawk road and

id like to thank the city council for taking my comments tonight i would like to comment on a few areas the first onewould be the medicinal designation that is under consideration its very important for dispenser used to have himadditional designation there are many patients out there that rely on cannabis products to ease their elements itsits a very real product very real solutions for these patients and adding a additional designation with allowdispensarys too provide for patients on a compassion program which allows patients to receive medicine at no costor very low cost to deal with their ailments the second area id like to touch on is licensing types and they needed tofill the for the farmers out there who lack the ability to process campus on their farmers lts very very expensive tobuild out the infrastructure having this type of ability For farmers will create job opportunities and new sources ofeconomic activity and job growth and an opportunity for the city of Grass Attic capitalized on that revenue streamTheres many many jobs that are needed in that realm the third would like to touch on is zoning and this is a bigone because the zone regulations that i reviewed that are currently under consideration Dont seem to really supportthe industry or provide for the best use of space currently dispensary s are limited to see three space heavy

commercial space which is more common with automotive shops roofing companies storage facilities etc and

theres a number of problems with that type of zoning besides the the fact that its there in more remote areas itallows for a greater Opportunity for robbery and theft and things of that nature it puts the patrons of this anddoesnt doesnt put them out in a place that they are more visible to law enforcement and able to have crimeprevention through a good design good public exposure further or not having properties zoned in areas that are

more prevalent it limits the available space for these businesses to operate and in fact will cause cost per square footto go up substantially because theres less available space and it will also displace other types of businesses thatneed to be in those spaces so it just seems to make sense to put dispensaries into an area that will supporteconomic growth alot of these dispensary s people that visit visit these dispensaries will also go to a dry cleanercoffee shop sandwich shop if theyre nearby and they need those services so i would like that to be considered as

well the fourth area is set backs set backs in place now were proposed setbacks it seems to me that you know

setbacks are certainly needed in there we are clearly are there for a reason however Cannabis businesses with theexception of retail are not out in front of the public manufacturing processing etc are usually off the main strip and

dispensarys are more in the retail sector these setbacks for processors and others just creates more problems forthem to find space and be able to afford that space that is city allows for a different set back limitation then grass

valley is proposing i would encourage you to look at those setbacks and work to be in line with those and finally fifthon my list here is the requirement on manufacturing businesses for their square footage limitation This this really

limits potential manufacturer

hi my name is maggie phillips born im a citizen of nevada county and have been watching local and state cannabispolicy developments for many years now but weve all learned over these past few years is that the statewideregulations for legal cannabis businesses are truly complex and unique to the canvas industry The City Council Dad

Hot Committee last met nearly four and a half years ago ln June of 2016 prior to state legalization Since then a

significant amount of state legislation and industry regulations have been issued an revised lts important for theCity Councilto make decisions and adopt an ordinance based on present day industry standards and market drivendata versus conversations from over four years ago Fears associated with prohibition and legalization have proven

to be unfounded and we can look to our neighbors in Nevada City as to what a successful emerging industry lookslike That is completely unnoticeable to the general community i care about the economic vitality of our communityand it seems were going to continue to experience increased economic stress due to covid cannabis is an essential

industry and has proven locally and statewide to stand out as a pillar of economic stability during economic

hardship i look forward to grass valley and bracing this industry and appreciate your time and consideration thisevening i would encourage the council to make decisions tonight that will help build a new industry and provide

Fresh opportunities for tax revenue Please look at the reality of what a healthy highly regulated industry looks like

and do not rely on stories of what the industry was feared to look like prior to legalization Lets put our economicfuture 1st Thank you

hello my name is FORREST HURD and im calling to leave Public Comments for tonight agenda item pertaining tocannabis allowance in grass valley many people might have heard about my son stylist HURD during the measure wwork And ongoing work in Nevada County as pertains to the rights of children whose lives depend on access tomedical products that are based in cannabis im calling tonight because i am just very concerned about Grass

Valleys decision to not allow for medical cannabis in their communities And ljust want to hopefully reiterate thatchildren like my son Silas who was in the papers and on the news whose life genuinely depends on access Live in

our community here in Grass Valley and when we only allow adult use essentially what were doing is saying that all

access is available except for those whose lives may depend on it Now I know that when people are not really upto state with the science and the situation that pertains to children in cannabis they hear the word children and theyget nervous but the reality is children with these conditions you dont hear about adults because they dont live tobecome adults Without treatment options when all other medical treatment options and we have neurologistsspecialists who are giving parents guidance in these treatments in all they need is a place to have safe in legal access

i would encourage grass valley who Not make it a crime in their community for a parent to legally save their childslife Please consider adding medical do your allowance is in your community Our community because Without thatwe are doing all of the four profit activity and none of the moral and ethical activities that comes along withbringing cannabis in our society please also consider expanding zoning for businesses reducing set back add a

processing license type and remove arbitrary requirements on manufacturing business is all of these things add upto more access for those who need it most and no one wants to go home at night and say yeah we allowed all of theparties but no option for the most desperate in vulnerable in our community thank you

hello my name is jonathan collier and i live at one oh six nine six cedar song road im a former board member thenevada county cannabis lines and the california grows association and the author of the craft kansas revolution first i

hope that this comment as well as all others are given that fold deal iwas somewhat appalled that during theplanning commission that the detail and death my comments as well as many others with her face in a single

sentence i hope the public process will be more fully respected tonight as someone who has had the privilege to sit

with various grass valley city council members and staff regarding what counts regulations would look like in the cityof grass valley ive always respected and appreciated the proship patience learning by the experience of others andrespecting the wishes of the constituency that the city is adopted it has now been over four years since many ofthose conversations began Cannabis has gained overwhelming acceptance throughout our country and across theroad There are still many difficulties in our state especially those associated with the traditional market that persists

primarily because the majority of jurisdictions although having popular support had failed to move fonruard withadopting the appropriate regulations lm encouraged that Grass Valley is finally given the opportunity for legal

entrepreneurs and professionals and mechanics industry to operate within the city limits however i am concerned

that this progress is in appearance only i say this because the canvas orders can be proved tonight that is so

restrictive but only in a handful of businesses can move forward if that i researched available properties that wouldbe available to kansas businesses given the current restrictions zoning and the set backs from residence in schoolsthere about thirty total units that can be used for cannabis permits within the city limits of these none are availablefor rent and one is available for purchase so in reality we are writing in order to allow for one possible business tooperate lt is the city strategy to restrict the number and size of business to make it friendlier to local businesses This

is exactly the opposite of what will happen with the current policy since there are so few available space is it willtake extremely well financed large businesses that youre a promise whether thats the purchasing a property orbuying out leases from existing business is something we also do not want to see these rates that we think theheavily restricted zoning and set back limitations that are being proposed send it to be allowed in C two zoning and

reduce or remove the set backs from residential zones we do not have to look far for successful models of regulated

cannabis industry i know there is a disinclination to look at nevada city as an example but at the end of the day theyserve much of the same community in savannah city s adopted their owners in twenty eighteen that had been jail

complaints and many of the fiercest opponents are now spanish allies once theyve witnessed the professionalism

and standards are these business owners if you create a broken system you are either not attract any partners orworse the wrong type of partners Go to system that works and youll be well rewarded there are a lot of wonderfuloperators waiting to be in their businesses Lets let them do it Thank you so much

maximizes compatibility with vendor equipment and other regional LMR systems well into thefuture

The animals are terrified as it is and when the shooting starts they literally start screaming (not just barking)It breaks my heart and I wanted to let you know that I was hoping you could figure out a solution to this I do think theanimal shelter is improving in the care it is providing but the shooting is just toxic for these terrified animalsRespectfullySusan Clark5307988215

hello my name is DIANA GAMZON and im executive director of the nevada county cannabis alliance a tradeassociation representing over three hundred members of the local cannabis industry we provide educational supportand public policy initiatives that promote a thriving local cannabis industry in the county i want to thank the grass

valley is to be council and grass valley s to the staff for your openness to welcome a cannabis industry into the citylimits after joining the effort to establish a regulated cannabis industry in about accounting we understand the grass

valley is moving cautiously into canvas regulation and with respect to this attitude we have modified ourrecommendations tonight to help balance what is needed to start a cannabis industry with the communityconsiderations The current proposed zoning and setbacks eliminate viable available partials in which cannabisbusinesses would be able to operate We encourage the Council to consider expanding zoning in areas withcompatible uses for cannabis businesses and other light industrial allowances such as the use of overlays in generalindustrial business parks in special development areas With strict limits on the available parcels were welcominginto the community well funded out of town operators versus helping locals open businesses Please ensure thisordinance is iaccessible to local residents lying to operate craft cannabis businesses by reducing the residential set

back from 500 feet to 250 feet Additional light industrial parcels become available While still providing the city withthe desired residential set back buffer in addition we strongly recommend expanding the zoning for retaildispensaries the zoning is currently limited to heavy commercial and light industrial with common businesses such

as auto repairs heavy machine suppliers and industrial storage dispensaries operated the cash only business in

locating these businesses and heavy industrial areas composed risk of less visibility from law enforcement this puts

both employees and patrons at risk the economic ripple effect of dispensary s have been well documented in

communities throughout the county country and there is a direct correlation between money spent its trendingrestaurants shopped and special specialty stores the ordinance can serve as a foundation for creative careeropportunities for locals examples of jobs include chief financial officers Scientist supply chain managers andmarketing specialist specialists Testing labs often hire PhD positions the limit on the sides of manufacturingbusinesses has not yet been justified and it limits entrepreneurship and innovation the restriction also does not allowbusinesses to pivot in the future the twenty eighteen grass valley strategic plan continually appoint appoints todiversifying the economy providing opportunity for non traditional retail supporting small farmers and providingopportunities for industrial businesses to thrive in addition line four B eleven express is the goalto evaluate theeconomic social and community impacts of a dispensary we are here to today to advocate for an industry that is in

alignment with with the existing goals set out and adopted by the city We encourage the Council to consider thecomments provided by the industry this evening as you deliberate We recommend that the Council vote to considerthe recommendations that have been provided Thank you for your consideration

hello good evening my name is basil mcmahon i live at one eight five seven two is trying to place in unincorporatednevada county im calling to encourage got five city council to consider a few changes to the ordinance has

proposed Yeah lm an owner and operator of a cannabis distribution and manufacturing business in Nevada Citycalled Rough and ready goods and we have a facility here lts about 5000 square feet By no means is it a large

space Half of our facility here is for our distribution business with one license and approximately the other half ofthe manufacturing license And I understand that this citys proposal is to limit the size as the square footageallowed for manufacturing businesses i dont understand the justification forthis restriction i can understand thatyou know perhaps the rationale for for setbacks or for restricting the zoning but what is the rationale for restrictingthe size of the manufacturing business and if there is a rationale why why is that limits for at five thousand squarefeet and not say ten or fifteen thousand square feet i dont expect there to be enormous manufacturing facilitiesgetting set up in grass valley its just not actually all that practical most businesses operate in moderately sized

facilities but to keep it to you know a couple thousand square feet would really restrict the ability of thosebusinesses to succeed similarly i encourage you strongly to reconsider the proposal to tax cannabis based on itspotency there are a lot of products on the market which why are you know use responsibly and are more potentthan seventeen percent it could be at absolute deal breaker for businesses trying to get set up and to follow therules and participate in the legal marketplace and to pay taxes so i strongly encourage you to reconsider thatparticular portion of your morning thank you very much for your consideration have a good day

ordinance really severely limit the opportunities for cannabis businesses to take hold and flourish in your city lt willdrive up the price of real estate or those select few properties to the exclusion of all other properties i wouldencourage you to do put together an ordinance that will help and industry actually succeeded in grass valley And ldlike to close by thanking those of you on the Council for your service to this community and for consideration of thiscontroversial topic in the Community of Grass Valley Thank you

Tuesday November 102020 551 PM

Public CommentsCannabis Business Ordinance public Comment

Dear member of the Grass Valley City Council

My name is Maria Herrera Im once again submitting a public comment similar to my email to the Grass Valley Planning

Commission hoping this time my public comment could be taken into consideration I am a board member of theNevada City Cannabis Alliance and for the past four years I have worked as a consultant helping cannabis businesses

acquire local and state licenses and set up operations in Nevada County throughout California and other states wherethere are existing cannabis regulations such as Oregon and lllinois

I commend city staff and the citys efforts to begin the process of establishing a cannabis business ordinance that has thepotential to positively impact the citys economic development goals

However as written the ordinance has the potential to stifle the benefits the city could potentially reap from having a

cannabis business ordinance

First the zoning restrictions in the current draft of the ordinance could inadvertently create a gentrification effect thatcould displace existing businesses in the proposed green zones When zoning regulations such as this are establishedin such a restrictive manner landlords in those areas would be willing to evict or displace existing businesses under theflawed premise that they could charge a higher rent per square footage to cannabis tenants than they are currentlygetting from existing tenants This has proven true in places like Sacramento which experienced the displacement ofother manufacturing industries and services such as auto body shops to give way to higher paying tenants in thecannabis industry some of which in the end couldnt bear the burden of higher rents This would neither serve residents

of Grass Valley existing businesses or future cannabis businesses

Reducing the residential setback from 500 to 250 feet could make more parcels available for the proposed use

Second the restriction on the square footage allowed for manufacturing businesses (4000 square feet) is arbitrary anddoes not take into consideration the space needed to operate a compliant cannabis manufacturing facility that is safeand congruent with state requirements

Third the restriction for distribution companies on their ability to distribute to other cannabis businesses such as

manufacturers and other distribution companies is also arbitrary and does not take into consideration how the cannabisindustry supply chain works Many cannabis distribution companies focus on bulk sales or wholesaling while othersprefer to focus on packaging and labeling products that are ready for distribution to retail As city staff and legal advisorssurely must know and as per state regulations cannabis retailers can only receive products packaged in its final formwhich includes weight and dosage restrictions tamper evident sealing and full information panel Restricting what typeof businesses cannabis distributors can compliantly and legally distribute products will greatly hinder the businessability to diversiff based on facility layout and expertise These kinds of restrictions would not allow for a healthy and

thriving supply chain distribution model

Lastly I will let other speakers touch on the draft ordinances lack of access for patients or Medical Use which wouldeliminate access to those needing medical cannabis most among other points that would create barriers to entry formany cannabis businesses

Yes good evening My name is Brad P Simer I actually live in Alta Sierra on Brewer Rd but I want to comment onthis evenings agenda My concerns as being the former vice chairman for the Americans for Safe Access GroupComma i think its extremely important that we expand zoning basically we have limited commercial space andallowing the zoning To allow to you know being commercial and neighborhood Flex center and allow for a nonretail businesses within the within the special development areas is important thing said facts i think that we shouldkeep the set backs for educational institutions an reduce residential setbacks from five hundred to two hundred fiftyfeet if you look at the cannabis businesses that are existing they have extremely good relationships with all of theirneighbors and i think that would be maintained going with in residential Medical use my my whole thing involved inthe cannabis industry has been based on medical use And I think that we should have a retail option to promoteaccess for medical cannabis patients ive always worked in that way and i think thats an important thing i wouldalso like to see the processing license added to fulfill on need for local cannabis farmers basically their ability to alsoprocess materials on their farms a lot of times they have to ship that material off the farms which is anotherextensive cost involved in the project and then basically id like to see removed any of the arbitrary requirements onmanufacturing including square footage limitations as well as restrictions from manufacturing licenses Holding are

also a retail license i would like for this to move forward i appreciate your time this evening and i look fonruard toseeing progress on these issues thank you very

Good evening I am calling to leave a public comment in regards to the cannabis ordinance that the Grass Valley CityCouncil will be considering tonight My name is Sarahs Mail I am in Nevada County resident and an attorney whopractices in Nevada City and around Nevada County My law firm Origin group law works primarily with cannabisbusinesses who hold or are in the process of obtaining local permit and state license is related to the cannabisindustry i want to start by thanking the city council for its willingness to consider cannabis businesses within the cityof grass valley i really believe that expanded access to cannabis permits and license types within the county willallow revenue to stay within the county and also provide the permitted cultivators and the unincorporated area ofnevada county and increased ability to work with local distributors manufacturers testing laboratories others in thesupply chain and allow us to keep those revenues within the county by opening up some options in the city of grass

valley i do have a few specific recommendations related to the proposed ordinance the first is that i stronglyencourage the city council To allow retailers to obtain both medicinal and adult use license designations themedicinal designation allows cannabis patients to purchase additional amounts of cannabis in cannabis productsthat may be necessary for patients medical needs in which are otherwise inaccessible Because there are morerestrictive limitations on amounts that may be purchased under an adult use only licensed retailer this second itemthat i would like to speak about relates to the license types i strongly encourage you to add a processing license

many nevada county cannabis farmers cant process their own cannabis plants following harvest on their ownproperties because they dont have appropriate facilities and so allowing processing facilities within grass valleywould just allow some additional options and again keep some revenue within the county as well as the local

farmers business so they dont need to go to folks in sacramento in other areas the last thing i want to mention is i

would ask that you remove the arbitrary requirements relating to manufacturing businesses including the squarefootage limitation and then the and the limitation also holding a retail license and then increase the available zoningareas for all license types thats about all thank you so much for taking the time to listen and to talk about this reallyimportant issue we appreciate you an look forward to listening to the meeting tonight thanks so much

My name is Daniel Finh license cultivatuer here in Nevada County Specialty cottage cultivation license I M calling torecommend that processing licenses added to the list of available permits in Grass Valley as the high cost

permitting a commercial building on my farm holds me back from being able to do it and i have need of all safe

processing its a really good license type it does not involve cultivation and it provides a lot of jobs entry leveljobs at

that and i think it could be good for the industry of grass sally even a single processing facility to potentially create

medical cannabis family farm in Grass Valley I know the tax is not on the agenda tonight I wanted to the console toaddress the THC tax in the near future I have concerns that if this is not wont be addressed then the industry is a

non starter from the beginning especially when in nevada city such tax does not exist many products with high THC

are in high demand and and less grass valley is able to meet the market demand both consumers and producers willChoose to shop and produce somewhere else again nobody cities for example THC tax is very importantconsidering when adopting an ordinance were the console is expecting job growth and new sources of revenue i

Hi my name is Shelley SALVATO tour and lve been 30 30 year resident of Nevada County raised my son s here

ive been an active volunteer with Nevada County Cannabis Alliance Over the years lm actively working at thedispensary And I my goal is to have a canvas manufacturing business producing high THC salves and lotions and

ive been looking for available locations in the proposed zoning however there is a lack of inventory in my last

search for location only brought up vacant land i plead with you guys to please open up the zoning to allowopportunities for locals to open businesses with a limited available parcels and restrictive zoning it seems that onlyout of county heavily funded businesses will be able to open along idaho maryland in light industrial zoning thereare few options were available parcels if only the residential set back was reduced from five hundred feet to twohundred feet may be helpful to understand that non retail cannabis businesses are not open to the public in veryselect regulations very strict regulations for security and out odor control to think that a youth would enter thesefacilities is mere nonsense it would not happen please dont handicap locals waiting to enter the industry due torational fears based on out dated Concerns related to prohibition These are professional businesses that deserve

the same respect as other businesses operating in light industrial My business would be no different than someonemaking lavender hand cream Also an aside as someone who aspires to produce high THC creams for topical use totreat skin conditions I highly recommend that the Council consider removing the THC tax at a future councilmeeting theres no way theres the tax revenue will be realized if that remains in fact i dont think any cannabisbusiness will choose to open if that tax remains THC tax will prove to be the the biggest handicap to the industrystarting in grass valley I have also been working in about a city at Elevation 2477Ihe last two years and I see howhigh are these taxes are already Just sales tax Nevada City tax and the excise tax and its really hurting theconsumers especially the elders of our community Who are you know really looking for high quality product so

hello good evening my name is john regalwith medicus industries in nevada city located on new mohawk road and

id like to thank the city council for taking my comments tonight i would like to comment on a few areas the first onewould be the medicinal designation that is under consideration its very important for dispenser used to have himadditional designation there are many patients out there that rely on cannabis products to ease their elements itsits a very real product very real solutions for these patients and adding a additional designation with allowdispensarys too provide for patients on a compassion program which allows patients to receive medicine at no costor very low cost to deal with their ailments the second area id like to touch on is licensing types and they needed tofill the for the farmers out there who lack the ability to process campus on their farmers lts very very expensive tobuild out the infrastructure having this type of ability For farmers will create job opportunities and new sources ofeconomic activity and job growth and an opportunity for the city of Grass Attic capitalized on that revenue streamTheres many many jobs that are needed in that realm the third would like to touch on is zoning and this is a bigone because the zone regulations that i reviewed that are currently under consideration Dont seem to really supportthe industry or provide for the best use of space currently dispensary s are limited to see three space heavy

commercial space which is more common with automotive shops roofing companies storage facilities etc and

theres a number of problems with that type of zoning besides the the fact that its there in more remote areas itallows for a greater Opportunity for robbery and theft and things of that nature it puts the patrons of this anddoesnt doesnt put them out in a place that they are more visible to law enforcement and able to have crimeprevention through a good design good public exposure further or not having properties zoned in areas that are

more prevalent it limits the available space for these businesses to operate and in fact will cause cost per square footto go up substantially because theres less available space and it will also displace other types of businesses thatneed to be in those spaces so it just seems to make sense to put dispensaries into an area that will supporteconomic growth alot of these dispensary s people that visit visit these dispensaries will also go to a dry cleanercoffee shop sandwich shop if theyre nearby and they need those services so i would like that to be considered as

well the fourth area is set backs set backs in place now were proposed setbacks it seems to me that you know

setbacks are certainly needed in there we are clearly are there for a reason however Cannabis businesses with theexception of retail are not out in front of the public manufacturing processing etc are usually off the main strip and

dispensarys are more in the retail sector these setbacks for processors and others just creates more problems forthem to find space and be able to afford that space that is city allows for a different set back limitation then grass

valley is proposing i would encourage you to look at those setbacks and work to be in line with those and finally fifthon my list here is the requirement on manufacturing businesses for their square footage limitation This this really

limits potential manufacturer

hi my name is maggie phillips born im a citizen of nevada county and have been watching local and state cannabispolicy developments for many years now but weve all learned over these past few years is that the statewideregulations for legal cannabis businesses are truly complex and unique to the canvas industry The City Council Dad

Hot Committee last met nearly four and a half years ago ln June of 2016 prior to state legalization Since then a

significant amount of state legislation and industry regulations have been issued an revised lts important for theCity Councilto make decisions and adopt an ordinance based on present day industry standards and market drivendata versus conversations from over four years ago Fears associated with prohibition and legalization have proven

to be unfounded and we can look to our neighbors in Nevada City as to what a successful emerging industry lookslike That is completely unnoticeable to the general community i care about the economic vitality of our communityand it seems were going to continue to experience increased economic stress due to covid cannabis is an essential

industry and has proven locally and statewide to stand out as a pillar of economic stability during economic

hardship i look forward to grass valley and bracing this industry and appreciate your time and consideration thisevening i would encourage the council to make decisions tonight that will help build a new industry and provide

Fresh opportunities for tax revenue Please look at the reality of what a healthy highly regulated industry looks like

and do not rely on stories of what the industry was feared to look like prior to legalization Lets put our economicfuture 1st Thank you

hello my name is FORREST HURD and im calling to leave Public Comments for tonight agenda item pertaining tocannabis allowance in grass valley many people might have heard about my son stylist HURD during the measure wwork And ongoing work in Nevada County as pertains to the rights of children whose lives depend on access tomedical products that are based in cannabis im calling tonight because i am just very concerned about Grass

Valleys decision to not allow for medical cannabis in their communities And ljust want to hopefully reiterate thatchildren like my son Silas who was in the papers and on the news whose life genuinely depends on access Live in

our community here in Grass Valley and when we only allow adult use essentially what were doing is saying that all

access is available except for those whose lives may depend on it Now I know that when people are not really upto state with the science and the situation that pertains to children in cannabis they hear the word children and theyget nervous but the reality is children with these conditions you dont hear about adults because they dont live tobecome adults Without treatment options when all other medical treatment options and we have neurologistsspecialists who are giving parents guidance in these treatments in all they need is a place to have safe in legal access

i would encourage grass valley who Not make it a crime in their community for a parent to legally save their childslife Please consider adding medical do your allowance is in your community Our community because Without thatwe are doing all of the four profit activity and none of the moral and ethical activities that comes along withbringing cannabis in our society please also consider expanding zoning for businesses reducing set back add a

processing license type and remove arbitrary requirements on manufacturing business is all of these things add upto more access for those who need it most and no one wants to go home at night and say yeah we allowed all of theparties but no option for the most desperate in vulnerable in our community thank you

hello my name is jonathan collier and i live at one oh six nine six cedar song road im a former board member thenevada county cannabis lines and the california grows association and the author of the craft kansas revolution first i

hope that this comment as well as all others are given that fold deal iwas somewhat appalled that during theplanning commission that the detail and death my comments as well as many others with her face in a single

sentence i hope the public process will be more fully respected tonight as someone who has had the privilege to sit

with various grass valley city council members and staff regarding what counts regulations would look like in the cityof grass valley ive always respected and appreciated the proship patience learning by the experience of others andrespecting the wishes of the constituency that the city is adopted it has now been over four years since many ofthose conversations began Cannabis has gained overwhelming acceptance throughout our country and across theroad There are still many difficulties in our state especially those associated with the traditional market that persists

primarily because the majority of jurisdictions although having popular support had failed to move fonruard withadopting the appropriate regulations lm encouraged that Grass Valley is finally given the opportunity for legal

entrepreneurs and professionals and mechanics industry to operate within the city limits however i am concerned

that this progress is in appearance only i say this because the canvas orders can be proved tonight that is so

restrictive but only in a handful of businesses can move forward if that i researched available properties that wouldbe available to kansas businesses given the current restrictions zoning and the set backs from residence in schoolsthere about thirty total units that can be used for cannabis permits within the city limits of these none are availablefor rent and one is available for purchase so in reality we are writing in order to allow for one possible business tooperate lt is the city strategy to restrict the number and size of business to make it friendlier to local businesses This

is exactly the opposite of what will happen with the current policy since there are so few available space is it willtake extremely well financed large businesses that youre a promise whether thats the purchasing a property orbuying out leases from existing business is something we also do not want to see these rates that we think theheavily restricted zoning and set back limitations that are being proposed send it to be allowed in C two zoning and

reduce or remove the set backs from residential zones we do not have to look far for successful models of regulated

cannabis industry i know there is a disinclination to look at nevada city as an example but at the end of the day theyserve much of the same community in savannah city s adopted their owners in twenty eighteen that had been jail

complaints and many of the fiercest opponents are now spanish allies once theyve witnessed the professionalism

and standards are these business owners if you create a broken system you are either not attract any partners orworse the wrong type of partners Go to system that works and youll be well rewarded there are a lot of wonderfuloperators waiting to be in their businesses Lets let them do it Thank you so much

In early 2016 the Police Deparfrnent adopted body worn cameras (BWC) for all sworn ofEcerpositions After extensive research and testing the Axon platform was selected Since that timewe have expanded the use of BWCs to additional personnel including animal control officers andfire department investigators The program has been incredibly successful with widespreadacceptance and appreciation for the tool by members of the department On countless occasionsthe existence of BWC footage has helped to exonerate officers against false or misleadingcomplaints provide for exceptional criminal evidence and help enlighten the public on the workwe do The use of BWCs by police agencies are now more a rule than and exception The publicexpects their use and their value far exceeds their costs They further the objective of policetransparency and make a shong case related to police legitimacy

As with all things technological BWCs and their supporting software and technology iscontinuously evolving GVPD uses a suite of backend support products in addition to Axonhardware Video files from Axon BWC devices are seamlessly uploaded to the evidencecomsecure cloud storage environment We share evidence with the District Attorneys office througha secure evidencecom portal and manage our video files online limiting the amount of humaninteraction needed to administer the program Nonetheless the management of this amount ofdata does take time and effort but through the well-designed technology we rue able to maintainour records for seamless use and criminal court discovery purposes

hello my name is DIANA GAMZON and im executive director of the nevada county cannabis alliance a tradeassociation representing over three hundred members of the local cannabis industry we provide educational supportand public policy initiatives that promote a thriving local cannabis industry in the county i want to thank the grass

valley is to be council and grass valley s to the staff for your openness to welcome a cannabis industry into the citylimits after joining the effort to establish a regulated cannabis industry in about accounting we understand the grass

valley is moving cautiously into canvas regulation and with respect to this attitude we have modified ourrecommendations tonight to help balance what is needed to start a cannabis industry with the communityconsiderations The current proposed zoning and setbacks eliminate viable available partials in which cannabisbusinesses would be able to operate We encourage the Council to consider expanding zoning in areas withcompatible uses for cannabis businesses and other light industrial allowances such as the use of overlays in generalindustrial business parks in special development areas With strict limits on the available parcels were welcominginto the community well funded out of town operators versus helping locals open businesses Please ensure thisordinance is iaccessible to local residents lying to operate craft cannabis businesses by reducing the residential set

back from 500 feet to 250 feet Additional light industrial parcels become available While still providing the city withthe desired residential set back buffer in addition we strongly recommend expanding the zoning for retaildispensaries the zoning is currently limited to heavy commercial and light industrial with common businesses such

as auto repairs heavy machine suppliers and industrial storage dispensaries operated the cash only business in

locating these businesses and heavy industrial areas composed risk of less visibility from law enforcement this puts

both employees and patrons at risk the economic ripple effect of dispensary s have been well documented in

communities throughout the county country and there is a direct correlation between money spent its trendingrestaurants shopped and special specialty stores the ordinance can serve as a foundation for creative careeropportunities for locals examples of jobs include chief financial officers Scientist supply chain managers andmarketing specialist specialists Testing labs often hire PhD positions the limit on the sides of manufacturingbusinesses has not yet been justified and it limits entrepreneurship and innovation the restriction also does not allowbusinesses to pivot in the future the twenty eighteen grass valley strategic plan continually appoint appoints todiversifying the economy providing opportunity for non traditional retail supporting small farmers and providingopportunities for industrial businesses to thrive in addition line four B eleven express is the goalto evaluate theeconomic social and community impacts of a dispensary we are here to today to advocate for an industry that is in

alignment with with the existing goals set out and adopted by the city We encourage the Council to consider thecomments provided by the industry this evening as you deliberate We recommend that the Council vote to considerthe recommendations that have been provided Thank you for your consideration

hello good evening my name is basil mcmahon i live at one eight five seven two is trying to place in unincorporatednevada county im calling to encourage got five city council to consider a few changes to the ordinance has

proposed Yeah lm an owner and operator of a cannabis distribution and manufacturing business in Nevada Citycalled Rough and ready goods and we have a facility here lts about 5000 square feet By no means is it a large

space Half of our facility here is for our distribution business with one license and approximately the other half ofthe manufacturing license And I understand that this citys proposal is to limit the size as the square footageallowed for manufacturing businesses i dont understand the justification forthis restriction i can understand thatyou know perhaps the rationale for for setbacks or for restricting the zoning but what is the rationale for restrictingthe size of the manufacturing business and if there is a rationale why why is that limits for at five thousand squarefeet and not say ten or fifteen thousand square feet i dont expect there to be enormous manufacturing facilitiesgetting set up in grass valley its just not actually all that practical most businesses operate in moderately sized

facilities but to keep it to you know a couple thousand square feet would really restrict the ability of thosebusinesses to succeed similarly i encourage you strongly to reconsider the proposal to tax cannabis based on itspotency there are a lot of products on the market which why are you know use responsibly and are more potentthan seventeen percent it could be at absolute deal breaker for businesses trying to get set up and to follow therules and participate in the legal marketplace and to pay taxes so i strongly encourage you to reconsider thatparticular portion of your morning thank you very much for your consideration have a good day

yes my name is wade laughter i live on idaho maryland road iwish to submit comment on the proposed cannabisordinance for you that you are considering this evening i would as a long time user of medical cannabis for myglaucoma as well as someone who has helped many persons will need cannabis i Thank you we consider theimportance of medical cannabis designation for your dispensary s There are people who need cannabis Yes youngpeople 18 oh to 21 year olds can come into a dispensary if they have a cannabis recommendation and its a medicaldispensary But wouldnt you rather they were buying their cannabis at a dispensary instead of in the parking lot atSafeway i would also encourage you to consider That the zoning that and set back requirements in your proposed

ordinance really severely limit the opportunities for cannabis businesses to take hold and flourish in your city lt willdrive up the price of real estate or those select few properties to the exclusion of all other properties i wouldencourage you to do put together an ordinance that will help and industry actually succeeded in grass valley And ldlike to close by thanking those of you on the Council for your service to this community and for consideration of thiscontroversial topic in the Community of Grass Valley Thank you

Tuesday November 102020 551 PM

Public CommentsCannabis Business Ordinance public Comment

Dear member of the Grass Valley City Council

My name is Maria Herrera Im once again submitting a public comment similar to my email to the Grass Valley Planning

Commission hoping this time my public comment could be taken into consideration I am a board member of theNevada City Cannabis Alliance and for the past four years I have worked as a consultant helping cannabis businesses

acquire local and state licenses and set up operations in Nevada County throughout California and other states wherethere are existing cannabis regulations such as Oregon and lllinois

I commend city staff and the citys efforts to begin the process of establishing a cannabis business ordinance that has thepotential to positively impact the citys economic development goals

However as written the ordinance has the potential to stifle the benefits the city could potentially reap from having a

cannabis business ordinance

First the zoning restrictions in the current draft of the ordinance could inadvertently create a gentrification effect thatcould displace existing businesses in the proposed green zones When zoning regulations such as this are establishedin such a restrictive manner landlords in those areas would be willing to evict or displace existing businesses under theflawed premise that they could charge a higher rent per square footage to cannabis tenants than they are currentlygetting from existing tenants This has proven true in places like Sacramento which experienced the displacement ofother manufacturing industries and services such as auto body shops to give way to higher paying tenants in thecannabis industry some of which in the end couldnt bear the burden of higher rents This would neither serve residents

of Grass Valley existing businesses or future cannabis businesses

Reducing the residential setback from 500 to 250 feet could make more parcels available for the proposed use

Second the restriction on the square footage allowed for manufacturing businesses (4000 square feet) is arbitrary anddoes not take into consideration the space needed to operate a compliant cannabis manufacturing facility that is safeand congruent with state requirements

Third the restriction for distribution companies on their ability to distribute to other cannabis businesses such as

manufacturers and other distribution companies is also arbitrary and does not take into consideration how the cannabisindustry supply chain works Many cannabis distribution companies focus on bulk sales or wholesaling while othersprefer to focus on packaging and labeling products that are ready for distribution to retail As city staff and legal advisorssurely must know and as per state regulations cannabis retailers can only receive products packaged in its final formwhich includes weight and dosage restrictions tamper evident sealing and full information panel Restricting what typeof businesses cannabis distributors can compliantly and legally distribute products will greatly hinder the businessability to diversiff based on facility layout and expertise These kinds of restrictions would not allow for a healthy and

thriving supply chain distribution model

Lastly I will let other speakers touch on the draft ordinances lack of access for patients or Medical Use which wouldeliminate access to those needing medical cannabis most among other points that would create barriers to entry formany cannabis businesses

Yes good evening My name is Brad P Simer I actually live in Alta Sierra on Brewer Rd but I want to comment onthis evenings agenda My concerns as being the former vice chairman for the Americans for Safe Access GroupComma i think its extremely important that we expand zoning basically we have limited commercial space andallowing the zoning To allow to you know being commercial and neighborhood Flex center and allow for a nonretail businesses within the within the special development areas is important thing said facts i think that we shouldkeep the set backs for educational institutions an reduce residential setbacks from five hundred to two hundred fiftyfeet if you look at the cannabis businesses that are existing they have extremely good relationships with all of theirneighbors and i think that would be maintained going with in residential Medical use my my whole thing involved inthe cannabis industry has been based on medical use And I think that we should have a retail option to promoteaccess for medical cannabis patients ive always worked in that way and i think thats an important thing i wouldalso like to see the processing license added to fulfill on need for local cannabis farmers basically their ability to alsoprocess materials on their farms a lot of times they have to ship that material off the farms which is anotherextensive cost involved in the project and then basically id like to see removed any of the arbitrary requirements onmanufacturing including square footage limitations as well as restrictions from manufacturing licenses Holding are

also a retail license i would like for this to move forward i appreciate your time this evening and i look fonruard toseeing progress on these issues thank you very

Good evening I am calling to leave a public comment in regards to the cannabis ordinance that the Grass Valley CityCouncil will be considering tonight My name is Sarahs Mail I am in Nevada County resident and an attorney whopractices in Nevada City and around Nevada County My law firm Origin group law works primarily with cannabisbusinesses who hold or are in the process of obtaining local permit and state license is related to the cannabisindustry i want to start by thanking the city council for its willingness to consider cannabis businesses within the cityof grass valley i really believe that expanded access to cannabis permits and license types within the county willallow revenue to stay within the county and also provide the permitted cultivators and the unincorporated area ofnevada county and increased ability to work with local distributors manufacturers testing laboratories others in thesupply chain and allow us to keep those revenues within the county by opening up some options in the city of grass

valley i do have a few specific recommendations related to the proposed ordinance the first is that i stronglyencourage the city council To allow retailers to obtain both medicinal and adult use license designations themedicinal designation allows cannabis patients to purchase additional amounts of cannabis in cannabis productsthat may be necessary for patients medical needs in which are otherwise inaccessible Because there are morerestrictive limitations on amounts that may be purchased under an adult use only licensed retailer this second itemthat i would like to speak about relates to the license types i strongly encourage you to add a processing license

many nevada county cannabis farmers cant process their own cannabis plants following harvest on their ownproperties because they dont have appropriate facilities and so allowing processing facilities within grass valleywould just allow some additional options and again keep some revenue within the county as well as the local

farmers business so they dont need to go to folks in sacramento in other areas the last thing i want to mention is i

would ask that you remove the arbitrary requirements relating to manufacturing businesses including the squarefootage limitation and then the and the limitation also holding a retail license and then increase the available zoningareas for all license types thats about all thank you so much for taking the time to listen and to talk about this reallyimportant issue we appreciate you an look forward to listening to the meeting tonight thanks so much

permitting a commercial building on my farm holds me back from being able to do it and i have need of all safe

processing its a really good license type it does not involve cultivation and it provides a lot of jobs entry leveljobs at

Hi my name is Shelley SALVATO tour and lve been 30 30 year resident of Nevada County raised my son s here

ive been an active volunteer with Nevada County Cannabis Alliance Over the years lm actively working at thedispensary And I my goal is to have a canvas manufacturing business producing high THC salves and lotions and

ive been looking for available locations in the proposed zoning however there is a lack of inventory in my last

search for location only brought up vacant land i plead with you guys to please open up the zoning to allowopportunities for locals to open businesses with a limited available parcels and restrictive zoning it seems that onlyout of county heavily funded businesses will be able to open along idaho maryland in light industrial zoning thereare few options were available parcels if only the residential set back was reduced from five hundred feet to twohundred feet may be helpful to understand that non retail cannabis businesses are not open to the public in veryselect regulations very strict regulations for security and out odor control to think that a youth would enter thesefacilities is mere nonsense it would not happen please dont handicap locals waiting to enter the industry due torational fears based on out dated Concerns related to prohibition These are professional businesses that deserve

the same respect as other businesses operating in light industrial My business would be no different than someonemaking lavender hand cream Also an aside as someone who aspires to produce high THC creams for topical use totreat skin conditions I highly recommend that the Council consider removing the THC tax at a future councilmeeting theres no way theres the tax revenue will be realized if that remains in fact i dont think any cannabisbusiness will choose to open if that tax remains THC tax will prove to be the the biggest handicap to the industrystarting in grass valley I have also been working in about a city at Elevation 2477Ihe last two years and I see howhigh are these taxes are already Just sales tax Nevada City tax and the excise tax and its really hurting theconsumers especially the elders of our community Who are you know really looking for high quality product so

hello good evening my name is john regalwith medicus industries in nevada city located on new mohawk road and

id like to thank the city council for taking my comments tonight i would like to comment on a few areas the first onewould be the medicinal designation that is under consideration its very important for dispenser used to have himadditional designation there are many patients out there that rely on cannabis products to ease their elements itsits a very real product very real solutions for these patients and adding a additional designation with allowdispensarys too provide for patients on a compassion program which allows patients to receive medicine at no costor very low cost to deal with their ailments the second area id like to touch on is licensing types and they needed tofill the for the farmers out there who lack the ability to process campus on their farmers lts very very expensive tobuild out the infrastructure having this type of ability For farmers will create job opportunities and new sources ofeconomic activity and job growth and an opportunity for the city of Grass Attic capitalized on that revenue streamTheres many many jobs that are needed in that realm the third would like to touch on is zoning and this is a bigone because the zone regulations that i reviewed that are currently under consideration Dont seem to really supportthe industry or provide for the best use of space currently dispensary s are limited to see three space heavy

commercial space which is more common with automotive shops roofing companies storage facilities etc and

theres a number of problems with that type of zoning besides the the fact that its there in more remote areas itallows for a greater Opportunity for robbery and theft and things of that nature it puts the patrons of this anddoesnt doesnt put them out in a place that they are more visible to law enforcement and able to have crimeprevention through a good design good public exposure further or not having properties zoned in areas that are

more prevalent it limits the available space for these businesses to operate and in fact will cause cost per square footto go up substantially because theres less available space and it will also displace other types of businesses thatneed to be in those spaces so it just seems to make sense to put dispensaries into an area that will supporteconomic growth alot of these dispensary s people that visit visit these dispensaries will also go to a dry cleanercoffee shop sandwich shop if theyre nearby and they need those services so i would like that to be considered as

well the fourth area is set backs set backs in place now were proposed setbacks it seems to me that you know

setbacks are certainly needed in there we are clearly are there for a reason however Cannabis businesses with theexception of retail are not out in front of the public manufacturing processing etc are usually off the main strip and

dispensarys are more in the retail sector these setbacks for processors and others just creates more problems forthem to find space and be able to afford that space that is city allows for a different set back limitation then grass

valley is proposing i would encourage you to look at those setbacks and work to be in line with those and finally fifthon my list here is the requirement on manufacturing businesses for their square footage limitation This this really

limits potential manufacturer

hi my name is maggie phillips born im a citizen of nevada county and have been watching local and state cannabispolicy developments for many years now but weve all learned over these past few years is that the statewideregulations for legal cannabis businesses are truly complex and unique to the canvas industry The City Council Dad

Hot Committee last met nearly four and a half years ago ln June of 2016 prior to state legalization Since then a

significant amount of state legislation and industry regulations have been issued an revised lts important for theCity Councilto make decisions and adopt an ordinance based on present day industry standards and market drivendata versus conversations from over four years ago Fears associated with prohibition and legalization have proven

to be unfounded and we can look to our neighbors in Nevada City as to what a successful emerging industry lookslike That is completely unnoticeable to the general community i care about the economic vitality of our communityand it seems were going to continue to experience increased economic stress due to covid cannabis is an essential

industry and has proven locally and statewide to stand out as a pillar of economic stability during economic

hardship i look forward to grass valley and bracing this industry and appreciate your time and consideration thisevening i would encourage the council to make decisions tonight that will help build a new industry and provide

Fresh opportunities for tax revenue Please look at the reality of what a healthy highly regulated industry looks like

and do not rely on stories of what the industry was feared to look like prior to legalization Lets put our economicfuture 1st Thank you

hello my name is FORREST HURD and im calling to leave Public Comments for tonight agenda item pertaining tocannabis allowance in grass valley many people might have heard about my son stylist HURD during the measure wwork And ongoing work in Nevada County as pertains to the rights of children whose lives depend on access tomedical products that are based in cannabis im calling tonight because i am just very concerned about Grass

Valleys decision to not allow for medical cannabis in their communities And ljust want to hopefully reiterate thatchildren like my son Silas who was in the papers and on the news whose life genuinely depends on access Live in

our community here in Grass Valley and when we only allow adult use essentially what were doing is saying that all

access is available except for those whose lives may depend on it Now I know that when people are not really upto state with the science and the situation that pertains to children in cannabis they hear the word children and theyget nervous but the reality is children with these conditions you dont hear about adults because they dont live tobecome adults Without treatment options when all other medical treatment options and we have neurologistsspecialists who are giving parents guidance in these treatments in all they need is a place to have safe in legal access

i would encourage grass valley who Not make it a crime in their community for a parent to legally save their childslife Please consider adding medical do your allowance is in your community Our community because Without thatwe are doing all of the four profit activity and none of the moral and ethical activities that comes along withbringing cannabis in our society please also consider expanding zoning for businesses reducing set back add a

processing license type and remove arbitrary requirements on manufacturing business is all of these things add upto more access for those who need it most and no one wants to go home at night and say yeah we allowed all of theparties but no option for the most desperate in vulnerable in our community thank you

hello my name is jonathan collier and i live at one oh six nine six cedar song road im a former board member thenevada county cannabis lines and the california grows association and the author of the craft kansas revolution first i

hope that this comment as well as all others are given that fold deal iwas somewhat appalled that during theplanning commission that the detail and death my comments as well as many others with her face in a single

sentence i hope the public process will be more fully respected tonight as someone who has had the privilege to sit

with various grass valley city council members and staff regarding what counts regulations would look like in the cityof grass valley ive always respected and appreciated the proship patience learning by the experience of others andrespecting the wishes of the constituency that the city is adopted it has now been over four years since many ofthose conversations began Cannabis has gained overwhelming acceptance throughout our country and across theroad There are still many difficulties in our state especially those associated with the traditional market that persists

primarily because the majority of jurisdictions although having popular support had failed to move fonruard withadopting the appropriate regulations lm encouraged that Grass Valley is finally given the opportunity for legal

entrepreneurs and professionals and mechanics industry to operate within the city limits however i am concerned

that this progress is in appearance only i say this because the canvas orders can be proved tonight that is so

restrictive but only in a handful of businesses can move forward if that i researched available properties that wouldbe available to kansas businesses given the current restrictions zoning and the set backs from residence in schoolsthere about thirty total units that can be used for cannabis permits within the city limits of these none are availablefor rent and one is available for purchase so in reality we are writing in order to allow for one possible business tooperate lt is the city strategy to restrict the number and size of business to make it friendlier to local businesses This

is exactly the opposite of what will happen with the current policy since there are so few available space is it willtake extremely well financed large businesses that youre a promise whether thats the purchasing a property orbuying out leases from existing business is something we also do not want to see these rates that we think theheavily restricted zoning and set back limitations that are being proposed send it to be allowed in C two zoning and

reduce or remove the set backs from residential zones we do not have to look far for successful models of regulated

cannabis industry i know there is a disinclination to look at nevada city as an example but at the end of the day theyserve much of the same community in savannah city s adopted their owners in twenty eighteen that had been jail

complaints and many of the fiercest opponents are now spanish allies once theyve witnessed the professionalism

and standards are these business owners if you create a broken system you are either not attract any partners orworse the wrong type of partners Go to system that works and youll be well rewarded there are a lot of wonderfuloperators waiting to be in their businesses Lets let them do it Thank you so much

maximizes compatibility with vendor equipment and other regional LMR systems well into thefuture

To Grass Valley City CouncilI walk the wonderful Wolf Creek Trail almost every day lt gives me a lot of joy and I am grateful that you constructed itHowever there is a lot of shooting from near the animal shelter I think its police practicing

The animals are terrified as it is and when the shooting starts they literally start screaming (not just barking)It breaks my heart and I wanted to let you know that I was hoping you could figure out a solution to this I do think theanimal shelter is improving in the care it is providing but the shooting is just toxic for these terrified animalsRespectfullySusan Clark5307988215

hello my name is DIANA GAMZON and im executive director of the nevada county cannabis alliance a tradeassociation representing over three hundred members of the local cannabis industry we provide educational supportand public policy initiatives that promote a thriving local cannabis industry in the county i want to thank the grass

valley is to be council and grass valley s to the staff for your openness to welcome a cannabis industry into the citylimits after joining the effort to establish a regulated cannabis industry in about accounting we understand the grass

valley is moving cautiously into canvas regulation and with respect to this attitude we have modified ourrecommendations tonight to help balance what is needed to start a cannabis industry with the communityconsiderations The current proposed zoning and setbacks eliminate viable available partials in which cannabisbusinesses would be able to operate We encourage the Council to consider expanding zoning in areas withcompatible uses for cannabis businesses and other light industrial allowances such as the use of overlays in generalindustrial business parks in special development areas With strict limits on the available parcels were welcominginto the community well funded out of town operators versus helping locals open businesses Please ensure thisordinance is iaccessible to local residents lying to operate craft cannabis businesses by reducing the residential set

back from 500 feet to 250 feet Additional light industrial parcels become available While still providing the city withthe desired residential set back buffer in addition we strongly recommend expanding the zoning for retaildispensaries the zoning is currently limited to heavy commercial and light industrial with common businesses such

as auto repairs heavy machine suppliers and industrial storage dispensaries operated the cash only business in

locating these businesses and heavy industrial areas composed risk of less visibility from law enforcement this puts

both employees and patrons at risk the economic ripple effect of dispensary s have been well documented in

communities throughout the county country and there is a direct correlation between money spent its trendingrestaurants shopped and special specialty stores the ordinance can serve as a foundation for creative careeropportunities for locals examples of jobs include chief financial officers Scientist supply chain managers andmarketing specialist specialists Testing labs often hire PhD positions the limit on the sides of manufacturingbusinesses has not yet been justified and it limits entrepreneurship and innovation the restriction also does not allowbusinesses to pivot in the future the twenty eighteen grass valley strategic plan continually appoint appoints todiversifying the economy providing opportunity for non traditional retail supporting small farmers and providingopportunities for industrial businesses to thrive in addition line four B eleven express is the goalto evaluate theeconomic social and community impacts of a dispensary we are here to today to advocate for an industry that is in

alignment with with the existing goals set out and adopted by the city We encourage the Council to consider thecomments provided by the industry this evening as you deliberate We recommend that the Council vote to considerthe recommendations that have been provided Thank you for your consideration

hello good evening my name is basil mcmahon i live at one eight five seven two is trying to place in unincorporatednevada county im calling to encourage got five city council to consider a few changes to the ordinance has

proposed Yeah lm an owner and operator of a cannabis distribution and manufacturing business in Nevada Citycalled Rough and ready goods and we have a facility here lts about 5000 square feet By no means is it a large

space Half of our facility here is for our distribution business with one license and approximately the other half ofthe manufacturing license And I understand that this citys proposal is to limit the size as the square footageallowed for manufacturing businesses i dont understand the justification forthis restriction i can understand thatyou know perhaps the rationale for for setbacks or for restricting the zoning but what is the rationale for restrictingthe size of the manufacturing business and if there is a rationale why why is that limits for at five thousand squarefeet and not say ten or fifteen thousand square feet i dont expect there to be enormous manufacturing facilitiesgetting set up in grass valley its just not actually all that practical most businesses operate in moderately sized

facilities but to keep it to you know a couple thousand square feet would really restrict the ability of thosebusinesses to succeed similarly i encourage you strongly to reconsider the proposal to tax cannabis based on itspotency there are a lot of products on the market which why are you know use responsibly and are more potentthan seventeen percent it could be at absolute deal breaker for businesses trying to get set up and to follow therules and participate in the legal marketplace and to pay taxes so i strongly encourage you to reconsider thatparticular portion of your morning thank you very much for your consideration have a good day

ordinance really severely limit the opportunities for cannabis businesses to take hold and flourish in your city lt willdrive up the price of real estate or those select few properties to the exclusion of all other properties i wouldencourage you to do put together an ordinance that will help and industry actually succeeded in grass valley And ldlike to close by thanking those of you on the Council for your service to this community and for consideration of thiscontroversial topic in the Community of Grass Valley Thank you

Tuesday November 102020 551 PM

Public CommentsCannabis Business Ordinance public Comment

Dear member of the Grass Valley City Council

My name is Maria Herrera Im once again submitting a public comment similar to my email to the Grass Valley Planning

Commission hoping this time my public comment could be taken into consideration I am a board member of theNevada City Cannabis Alliance and for the past four years I have worked as a consultant helping cannabis businesses

acquire local and state licenses and set up operations in Nevada County throughout California and other states wherethere are existing cannabis regulations such as Oregon and lllinois

I commend city staff and the citys efforts to begin the process of establishing a cannabis business ordinance that has thepotential to positively impact the citys economic development goals

However as written the ordinance has the potential to stifle the benefits the city could potentially reap from having a

cannabis business ordinance

First the zoning restrictions in the current draft of the ordinance could inadvertently create a gentrification effect thatcould displace existing businesses in the proposed green zones When zoning regulations such as this are establishedin such a restrictive manner landlords in those areas would be willing to evict or displace existing businesses under theflawed premise that they could charge a higher rent per square footage to cannabis tenants than they are currentlygetting from existing tenants This has proven true in places like Sacramento which experienced the displacement ofother manufacturing industries and services such as auto body shops to give way to higher paying tenants in thecannabis industry some of which in the end couldnt bear the burden of higher rents This would neither serve residents

of Grass Valley existing businesses or future cannabis businesses

Reducing the residential setback from 500 to 250 feet could make more parcels available for the proposed use

Second the restriction on the square footage allowed for manufacturing businesses (4000 square feet) is arbitrary anddoes not take into consideration the space needed to operate a compliant cannabis manufacturing facility that is safeand congruent with state requirements

Third the restriction for distribution companies on their ability to distribute to other cannabis businesses such as

manufacturers and other distribution companies is also arbitrary and does not take into consideration how the cannabisindustry supply chain works Many cannabis distribution companies focus on bulk sales or wholesaling while othersprefer to focus on packaging and labeling products that are ready for distribution to retail As city staff and legal advisorssurely must know and as per state regulations cannabis retailers can only receive products packaged in its final formwhich includes weight and dosage restrictions tamper evident sealing and full information panel Restricting what typeof businesses cannabis distributors can compliantly and legally distribute products will greatly hinder the businessability to diversiff based on facility layout and expertise These kinds of restrictions would not allow for a healthy and

thriving supply chain distribution model

Lastly I will let other speakers touch on the draft ordinances lack of access for patients or Medical Use which wouldeliminate access to those needing medical cannabis most among other points that would create barriers to entry formany cannabis businesses

Yes good evening My name is Brad P Simer I actually live in Alta Sierra on Brewer Rd but I want to comment onthis evenings agenda My concerns as being the former vice chairman for the Americans for Safe Access GroupComma i think its extremely important that we expand zoning basically we have limited commercial space andallowing the zoning To allow to you know being commercial and neighborhood Flex center and allow for a nonretail businesses within the within the special development areas is important thing said facts i think that we shouldkeep the set backs for educational institutions an reduce residential setbacks from five hundred to two hundred fiftyfeet if you look at the cannabis businesses that are existing they have extremely good relationships with all of theirneighbors and i think that would be maintained going with in residential Medical use my my whole thing involved inthe cannabis industry has been based on medical use And I think that we should have a retail option to promoteaccess for medical cannabis patients ive always worked in that way and i think thats an important thing i wouldalso like to see the processing license added to fulfill on need for local cannabis farmers basically their ability to alsoprocess materials on their farms a lot of times they have to ship that material off the farms which is anotherextensive cost involved in the project and then basically id like to see removed any of the arbitrary requirements onmanufacturing including square footage limitations as well as restrictions from manufacturing licenses Holding are

also a retail license i would like for this to move forward i appreciate your time this evening and i look fonruard toseeing progress on these issues thank you very

Good evening I am calling to leave a public comment in regards to the cannabis ordinance that the Grass Valley CityCouncil will be considering tonight My name is Sarahs Mail I am in Nevada County resident and an attorney whopractices in Nevada City and around Nevada County My law firm Origin group law works primarily with cannabisbusinesses who hold or are in the process of obtaining local permit and state license is related to the cannabisindustry i want to start by thanking the city council for its willingness to consider cannabis businesses within the cityof grass valley i really believe that expanded access to cannabis permits and license types within the county willallow revenue to stay within the county and also provide the permitted cultivators and the unincorporated area ofnevada county and increased ability to work with local distributors manufacturers testing laboratories others in thesupply chain and allow us to keep those revenues within the county by opening up some options in the city of grass

valley i do have a few specific recommendations related to the proposed ordinance the first is that i stronglyencourage the city council To allow retailers to obtain both medicinal and adult use license designations themedicinal designation allows cannabis patients to purchase additional amounts of cannabis in cannabis productsthat may be necessary for patients medical needs in which are otherwise inaccessible Because there are morerestrictive limitations on amounts that may be purchased under an adult use only licensed retailer this second itemthat i would like to speak about relates to the license types i strongly encourage you to add a processing license

many nevada county cannabis farmers cant process their own cannabis plants following harvest on their ownproperties because they dont have appropriate facilities and so allowing processing facilities within grass valleywould just allow some additional options and again keep some revenue within the county as well as the local

farmers business so they dont need to go to folks in sacramento in other areas the last thing i want to mention is i

would ask that you remove the arbitrary requirements relating to manufacturing businesses including the squarefootage limitation and then the and the limitation also holding a retail license and then increase the available zoningareas for all license types thats about all thank you so much for taking the time to listen and to talk about this reallyimportant issue we appreciate you an look forward to listening to the meeting tonight thanks so much

My name is Daniel Finh license cultivatuer here in Nevada County Specialty cottage cultivation license I M calling torecommend that processing licenses added to the list of available permits in Grass Valley as the high cost

permitting a commercial building on my farm holds me back from being able to do it and i have need of all safe

processing its a really good license type it does not involve cultivation and it provides a lot of jobs entry leveljobs at

that and i think it could be good for the industry of grass sally even a single processing facility to potentially create

ten or a dozen jobs thank you for hearing me today have a good day

non starter from the beginning especially when in nevada city such tax does not exist many products with high THC

are in high demand and and less grass valley is able to meet the market demand both consumers and producers willChoose to shop and produce somewhere else again nobody cities for example THC tax is very importantconsidering when adopting an ordinance were the console is expecting job growth and new sources of revenue i

Hi my name is Shelley SALVATO tour and lve been 30 30 year resident of Nevada County raised my son s here

ive been an active volunteer with Nevada County Cannabis Alliance Over the years lm actively working at thedispensary And I my goal is to have a canvas manufacturing business producing high THC salves and lotions and

ive been looking for available locations in the proposed zoning however there is a lack of inventory in my last

search for location only brought up vacant land i plead with you guys to please open up the zoning to allowopportunities for locals to open businesses with a limited available parcels and restrictive zoning it seems that onlyout of county heavily funded businesses will be able to open along idaho maryland in light industrial zoning thereare few options were available parcels if only the residential set back was reduced from five hundred feet to twohundred feet may be helpful to understand that non retail cannabis businesses are not open to the public in veryselect regulations very strict regulations for security and out odor control to think that a youth would enter thesefacilities is mere nonsense it would not happen please dont handicap locals waiting to enter the industry due torational fears based on out dated Concerns related to prohibition These are professional businesses that deserve

the same respect as other businesses operating in light industrial My business would be no different than someonemaking lavender hand cream Also an aside as someone who aspires to produce high THC creams for topical use totreat skin conditions I highly recommend that the Council consider removing the THC tax at a future councilmeeting theres no way theres the tax revenue will be realized if that remains in fact i dont think any cannabisbusiness will choose to open if that tax remains THC tax will prove to be the the biggest handicap to the industrystarting in grass valley I have also been working in about a city at Elevation 2477Ihe last two years and I see howhigh are these taxes are already Just sales tax Nevada City tax and the excise tax and its really hurting theconsumers especially the elders of our community Who are you know really looking for high quality product so

hello good evening my name is john regalwith medicus industries in nevada city located on new mohawk road and

id like to thank the city council for taking my comments tonight i would like to comment on a few areas the first onewould be the medicinal designation that is under consideration its very important for dispenser used to have himadditional designation there are many patients out there that rely on cannabis products to ease their elements itsits a very real product very real solutions for these patients and adding a additional designation with allowdispensarys too provide for patients on a compassion program which allows patients to receive medicine at no costor very low cost to deal with their ailments the second area id like to touch on is licensing types and they needed tofill the for the farmers out there who lack the ability to process campus on their farmers lts very very expensive tobuild out the infrastructure having this type of ability For farmers will create job opportunities and new sources ofeconomic activity and job growth and an opportunity for the city of Grass Attic capitalized on that revenue streamTheres many many jobs that are needed in that realm the third would like to touch on is zoning and this is a bigone because the zone regulations that i reviewed that are currently under consideration Dont seem to really supportthe industry or provide for the best use of space currently dispensary s are limited to see three space heavy

commercial space which is more common with automotive shops roofing companies storage facilities etc and

theres a number of problems with that type of zoning besides the the fact that its there in more remote areas itallows for a greater Opportunity for robbery and theft and things of that nature it puts the patrons of this anddoesnt doesnt put them out in a place that they are more visible to law enforcement and able to have crimeprevention through a good design good public exposure further or not having properties zoned in areas that are

more prevalent it limits the available space for these businesses to operate and in fact will cause cost per square footto go up substantially because theres less available space and it will also displace other types of businesses thatneed to be in those spaces so it just seems to make sense to put dispensaries into an area that will supporteconomic growth alot of these dispensary s people that visit visit these dispensaries will also go to a dry cleanercoffee shop sandwich shop if theyre nearby and they need those services so i would like that to be considered as

well the fourth area is set backs set backs in place now were proposed setbacks it seems to me that you know

setbacks are certainly needed in there we are clearly are there for a reason however Cannabis businesses with theexception of retail are not out in front of the public manufacturing processing etc are usually off the main strip and

dispensarys are more in the retail sector these setbacks for processors and others just creates more problems forthem to find space and be able to afford that space that is city allows for a different set back limitation then grass

valley is proposing i would encourage you to look at those setbacks and work to be in line with those and finally fifthon my list here is the requirement on manufacturing businesses for their square footage limitation This this really

limits potential manufacturer

hi my name is maggie phillips born im a citizen of nevada county and have been watching local and state cannabispolicy developments for many years now but weve all learned over these past few years is that the statewideregulations for legal cannabis businesses are truly complex and unique to the canvas industry The City Council Dad

Hot Committee last met nearly four and a half years ago ln June of 2016 prior to state legalization Since then a

significant amount of state legislation and industry regulations have been issued an revised lts important for theCity Councilto make decisions and adopt an ordinance based on present day industry standards and market drivendata versus conversations from over four years ago Fears associated with prohibition and legalization have proven

to be unfounded and we can look to our neighbors in Nevada City as to what a successful emerging industry lookslike That is completely unnoticeable to the general community i care about the economic vitality of our communityand it seems were going to continue to experience increased economic stress due to covid cannabis is an essential

industry and has proven locally and statewide to stand out as a pillar of economic stability during economic

hardship i look forward to grass valley and bracing this industry and appreciate your time and consideration thisevening i would encourage the council to make decisions tonight that will help build a new industry and provide

Fresh opportunities for tax revenue Please look at the reality of what a healthy highly regulated industry looks like

and do not rely on stories of what the industry was feared to look like prior to legalization Lets put our economicfuture 1st Thank you

hello my name is FORREST HURD and im calling to leave Public Comments for tonight agenda item pertaining tocannabis allowance in grass valley many people might have heard about my son stylist HURD during the measure wwork And ongoing work in Nevada County as pertains to the rights of children whose lives depend on access tomedical products that are based in cannabis im calling tonight because i am just very concerned about Grass

Valleys decision to not allow for medical cannabis in their communities And ljust want to hopefully reiterate thatchildren like my son Silas who was in the papers and on the news whose life genuinely depends on access Live in

our community here in Grass Valley and when we only allow adult use essentially what were doing is saying that all

access is available except for those whose lives may depend on it Now I know that when people are not really upto state with the science and the situation that pertains to children in cannabis they hear the word children and theyget nervous but the reality is children with these conditions you dont hear about adults because they dont live tobecome adults Without treatment options when all other medical treatment options and we have neurologistsspecialists who are giving parents guidance in these treatments in all they need is a place to have safe in legal access

i would encourage grass valley who Not make it a crime in their community for a parent to legally save their childslife Please consider adding medical do your allowance is in your community Our community because Without thatwe are doing all of the four profit activity and none of the moral and ethical activities that comes along withbringing cannabis in our society please also consider expanding zoning for businesses reducing set back add a

processing license type and remove arbitrary requirements on manufacturing business is all of these things add upto more access for those who need it most and no one wants to go home at night and say yeah we allowed all of theparties but no option for the most desperate in vulnerable in our community thank you

hello my name is jonathan collier and i live at one oh six nine six cedar song road im a former board member thenevada county cannabis lines and the california grows association and the author of the craft kansas revolution first i

hope that this comment as well as all others are given that fold deal iwas somewhat appalled that during theplanning commission that the detail and death my comments as well as many others with her face in a single

sentence i hope the public process will be more fully respected tonight as someone who has had the privilege to sit

with various grass valley city council members and staff regarding what counts regulations would look like in the cityof grass valley ive always respected and appreciated the proship patience learning by the experience of others andrespecting the wishes of the constituency that the city is adopted it has now been over four years since many ofthose conversations began Cannabis has gained overwhelming acceptance throughout our country and across theroad There are still many difficulties in our state especially those associated with the traditional market that persists

primarily because the majority of jurisdictions although having popular support had failed to move fonruard withadopting the appropriate regulations lm encouraged that Grass Valley is finally given the opportunity for legal

entrepreneurs and professionals and mechanics industry to operate within the city limits however i am concerned

that this progress is in appearance only i say this because the canvas orders can be proved tonight that is so

restrictive but only in a handful of businesses can move forward if that i researched available properties that wouldbe available to kansas businesses given the current restrictions zoning and the set backs from residence in schoolsthere about thirty total units that can be used for cannabis permits within the city limits of these none are availablefor rent and one is available for purchase so in reality we are writing in order to allow for one possible business tooperate lt is the city strategy to restrict the number and size of business to make it friendlier to local businesses This

is exactly the opposite of what will happen with the current policy since there are so few available space is it willtake extremely well financed large businesses that youre a promise whether thats the purchasing a property orbuying out leases from existing business is something we also do not want to see these rates that we think theheavily restricted zoning and set back limitations that are being proposed send it to be allowed in C two zoning and

reduce or remove the set backs from residential zones we do not have to look far for successful models of regulated

cannabis industry i know there is a disinclination to look at nevada city as an example but at the end of the day theyserve much of the same community in savannah city s adopted their owners in twenty eighteen that had been jail

complaints and many of the fiercest opponents are now spanish allies once theyve witnessed the professionalism

and standards are these business owners if you create a broken system you are either not attract any partners orworse the wrong type of partners Go to system that works and youll be well rewarded there are a lot of wonderfuloperators waiting to be in their businesses Lets let them do it Thank you so much

The proposal by Motorola Solutions uses the H-GAC Cooperative Purchasing Program for the

radios

This new infrastructure will improve the performance of the Police Departments LMR operations

and enhance interoperability with partner agencies It will also allow the deparfinent to more

efficiently and effectively monitor and maintain the syston The department has determined that

aP25 digital system (mixed mode) is the best solution for its needs based on current and evolvingtechnology This standard will help ensure that the City has a common operating platform that

maximizes compatibility with vendor equipment and other regional LMR systems well into thefuture

To best meet the functional and operational needs of the department Motorola Solutions proposal

hello my name is DIANA GAMZON and im executive director of the nevada county cannabis alliance a tradeassociation representing over three hundred members of the local cannabis industry we provide educational supportand public policy initiatives that promote a thriving local cannabis industry in the county i want to thank the grass

valley is to be council and grass valley s to the staff for your openness to welcome a cannabis industry into the citylimits after joining the effort to establish a regulated cannabis industry in about accounting we understand the grass

valley is moving cautiously into canvas regulation and with respect to this attitude we have modified ourrecommendations tonight to help balance what is needed to start a cannabis industry with the communityconsiderations The current proposed zoning and setbacks eliminate viable available partials in which cannabisbusinesses would be able to operate We encourage the Council to consider expanding zoning in areas withcompatible uses for cannabis businesses and other light industrial allowances such as the use of overlays in generalindustrial business parks in special development areas With strict limits on the available parcels were welcominginto the community well funded out of town operators versus helping locals open businesses Please ensure thisordinance is iaccessible to local residents lying to operate craft cannabis businesses by reducing the residential set

back from 500 feet to 250 feet Additional light industrial parcels become available While still providing the city withthe desired residential set back buffer in addition we strongly recommend expanding the zoning for retaildispensaries the zoning is currently limited to heavy commercial and light industrial with common businesses such

as auto repairs heavy machine suppliers and industrial storage dispensaries operated the cash only business in

locating these businesses and heavy industrial areas composed risk of less visibility from law enforcement this puts

both employees and patrons at risk the economic ripple effect of dispensary s have been well documented in

communities throughout the county country and there is a direct correlation between money spent its trendingrestaurants shopped and special specialty stores the ordinance can serve as a foundation for creative careeropportunities for locals examples of jobs include chief financial officers Scientist supply chain managers andmarketing specialist specialists Testing labs often hire PhD positions the limit on the sides of manufacturingbusinesses has not yet been justified and it limits entrepreneurship and innovation the restriction also does not allowbusinesses to pivot in the future the twenty eighteen grass valley strategic plan continually appoint appoints todiversifying the economy providing opportunity for non traditional retail supporting small farmers and providingopportunities for industrial businesses to thrive in addition line four B eleven express is the goalto evaluate theeconomic social and community impacts of a dispensary we are here to today to advocate for an industry that is in

alignment with with the existing goals set out and adopted by the city We encourage the Council to consider thecomments provided by the industry this evening as you deliberate We recommend that the Council vote to considerthe recommendations that have been provided Thank you for your consideration

hello good evening my name is basil mcmahon i live at one eight five seven two is trying to place in unincorporatednevada county im calling to encourage got five city council to consider a few changes to the ordinance has

proposed Yeah lm an owner and operator of a cannabis distribution and manufacturing business in Nevada Citycalled Rough and ready goods and we have a facility here lts about 5000 square feet By no means is it a large

space Half of our facility here is for our distribution business with one license and approximately the other half ofthe manufacturing license And I understand that this citys proposal is to limit the size as the square footageallowed for manufacturing businesses i dont understand the justification forthis restriction i can understand thatyou know perhaps the rationale for for setbacks or for restricting the zoning but what is the rationale for restrictingthe size of the manufacturing business and if there is a rationale why why is that limits for at five thousand squarefeet and not say ten or fifteen thousand square feet i dont expect there to be enormous manufacturing facilitiesgetting set up in grass valley its just not actually all that practical most businesses operate in moderately sized

facilities but to keep it to you know a couple thousand square feet would really restrict the ability of thosebusinesses to succeed similarly i encourage you strongly to reconsider the proposal to tax cannabis based on itspotency there are a lot of products on the market which why are you know use responsibly and are more potentthan seventeen percent it could be at absolute deal breaker for businesses trying to get set up and to follow therules and participate in the legal marketplace and to pay taxes so i strongly encourage you to reconsider thatparticular portion of your morning thank you very much for your consideration have a good day

yes my name is wade laughter i live on idaho maryland road iwish to submit comment on the proposed cannabisordinance for you that you are considering this evening i would as a long time user of medical cannabis for myglaucoma as well as someone who has helped many persons will need cannabis i Thank you we consider theimportance of medical cannabis designation for your dispensary s There are people who need cannabis Yes youngpeople 18 oh to 21 year olds can come into a dispensary if they have a cannabis recommendation and its a medicaldispensary But wouldnt you rather they were buying their cannabis at a dispensary instead of in the parking lot atSafeway i would also encourage you to consider That the zoning that and set back requirements in your proposed

ordinance really severely limit the opportunities for cannabis businesses to take hold and flourish in your city lt willdrive up the price of real estate or those select few properties to the exclusion of all other properties i wouldencourage you to do put together an ordinance that will help and industry actually succeeded in grass valley And ldlike to close by thanking those of you on the Council for your service to this community and for consideration of thiscontroversial topic in the Community of Grass Valley Thank you

Public CommentsCannabis Business Ordinance public Comment

Dear member of the Grass Valley City Council

My name is Maria Herrera Im once again submitting a public comment similar to my email to the Grass Valley Planning

Commission hoping this time my public comment could be taken into consideration I am a board member of theNevada City Cannabis Alliance and for the past four years I have worked as a consultant helping cannabis businesses

acquire local and state licenses and set up operations in Nevada County throughout California and other states wherethere are existing cannabis regulations such as Oregon and lllinois

I commend city staff and the citys efforts to begin the process of establishing a cannabis business ordinance that has thepotential to positively impact the citys economic development goals

However as written the ordinance has the potential to stifle the benefits the city could potentially reap from having a

cannabis business ordinance

First the zoning restrictions in the current draft of the ordinance could inadvertently create a gentrification effect thatcould displace existing businesses in the proposed green zones When zoning regulations such as this are establishedin such a restrictive manner landlords in those areas would be willing to evict or displace existing businesses under theflawed premise that they could charge a higher rent per square footage to cannabis tenants than they are currentlygetting from existing tenants This has proven true in places like Sacramento which experienced the displacement ofother manufacturing industries and services such as auto body shops to give way to higher paying tenants in thecannabis industry some of which in the end couldnt bear the burden of higher rents This would neither serve residents

of Grass Valley existing businesses or future cannabis businesses

Reducing the residential setback from 500 to 250 feet could make more parcels available for the proposed use

Second the restriction on the square footage allowed for manufacturing businesses (4000 square feet) is arbitrary anddoes not take into consideration the space needed to operate a compliant cannabis manufacturing facility that is safeand congruent with state requirements

Third the restriction for distribution companies on their ability to distribute to other cannabis businesses such as

manufacturers and other distribution companies is also arbitrary and does not take into consideration how the cannabisindustry supply chain works Many cannabis distribution companies focus on bulk sales or wholesaling while othersprefer to focus on packaging and labeling products that are ready for distribution to retail As city staff and legal advisorssurely must know and as per state regulations cannabis retailers can only receive products packaged in its final formwhich includes weight and dosage restrictions tamper evident sealing and full information panel Restricting what typeof businesses cannabis distributors can compliantly and legally distribute products will greatly hinder the businessability to diversiff based on facility layout and expertise These kinds of restrictions would not allow for a healthy and

thriving supply chain distribution model

Lastly I will let other speakers touch on the draft ordinances lack of access for patients or Medical Use which wouldeliminate access to those needing medical cannabis most among other points that would create barriers to entry formany cannabis businesses

Yes good evening My name is Brad P Simer I actually live in Alta Sierra on Brewer Rd but I want to comment onthis evenings agenda My concerns as being the former vice chairman for the Americans for Safe Access GroupComma i think its extremely important that we expand zoning basically we have limited commercial space andallowing the zoning To allow to you know being commercial and neighborhood Flex center and allow for a nonretail businesses within the within the special development areas is important thing said facts i think that we shouldkeep the set backs for educational institutions an reduce residential setbacks from five hundred to two hundred fiftyfeet if you look at the cannabis businesses that are existing they have extremely good relationships with all of theirneighbors and i think that would be maintained going with in residential Medical use my my whole thing involved inthe cannabis industry has been based on medical use And I think that we should have a retail option to promoteaccess for medical cannabis patients ive always worked in that way and i think thats an important thing i wouldalso like to see the processing license added to fulfill on need for local cannabis farmers basically their ability to alsoprocess materials on their farms a lot of times they have to ship that material off the farms which is anotherextensive cost involved in the project and then basically id like to see removed any of the arbitrary requirements onmanufacturing including square footage limitations as well as restrictions from manufacturing licenses Holding are

also a retail license i would like for this to move forward i appreciate your time this evening and i look fonruard toseeing progress on these issues thank you very

Good evening I am calling to leave a public comment in regards to the cannabis ordinance that the Grass Valley CityCouncil will be considering tonight My name is Sarahs Mail I am in Nevada County resident and an attorney whopractices in Nevada City and around Nevada County My law firm Origin group law works primarily with cannabisbusinesses who hold or are in the process of obtaining local permit and state license is related to the cannabisindustry i want to start by thanking the city council for its willingness to consider cannabis businesses within the cityof grass valley i really believe that expanded access to cannabis permits and license types within the county willallow revenue to stay within the county and also provide the permitted cultivators and the unincorporated area ofnevada county and increased ability to work with local distributors manufacturers testing laboratories others in thesupply chain and allow us to keep those revenues within the county by opening up some options in the city of grass

valley i do have a few specific recommendations related to the proposed ordinance the first is that i stronglyencourage the city council To allow retailers to obtain both medicinal and adult use license designations themedicinal designation allows cannabis patients to purchase additional amounts of cannabis in cannabis productsthat may be necessary for patients medical needs in which are otherwise inaccessible Because there are morerestrictive limitations on amounts that may be purchased under an adult use only licensed retailer this second itemthat i would like to speak about relates to the license types i strongly encourage you to add a processing license

many nevada county cannabis farmers cant process their own cannabis plants following harvest on their ownproperties because they dont have appropriate facilities and so allowing processing facilities within grass valleywould just allow some additional options and again keep some revenue within the county as well as the local

farmers business so they dont need to go to folks in sacramento in other areas the last thing i want to mention is i

would ask that you remove the arbitrary requirements relating to manufacturing businesses including the squarefootage limitation and then the and the limitation also holding a retail license and then increase the available zoningareas for all license types thats about all thank you so much for taking the time to listen and to talk about this reallyimportant issue we appreciate you an look forward to listening to the meeting tonight thanks so much

permitting a commercial building on my farm holds me back from being able to do it and i have need of all safe

processing its a really good license type it does not involve cultivation and it provides a lot of jobs entry leveljobs at

non starter from the beginning especially when in nevada city such tax does not exist many products with high THC

are in high demand and and less grass valley is able to meet the market demand both consumers and producers willChoose to shop and produce somewhere else again nobody cities for example THC tax is very importantconsidering when adopting an ordinance were the console is expecting job growth and new sources of revenue i

Hi my name is Shelley SALVATO tour and lve been 30 30 year resident of Nevada County raised my son s here

ive been an active volunteer with Nevada County Cannabis Alliance Over the years lm actively working at thedispensary And I my goal is to have a canvas manufacturing business producing high THC salves and lotions and

ive been looking for available locations in the proposed zoning however there is a lack of inventory in my last

search for location only brought up vacant land i plead with you guys to please open up the zoning to allowopportunities for locals to open businesses with a limited available parcels and restrictive zoning it seems that onlyout of county heavily funded businesses will be able to open along idaho maryland in light industrial zoning thereare few options were available parcels if only the residential set back was reduced from five hundred feet to twohundred feet may be helpful to understand that non retail cannabis businesses are not open to the public in veryselect regulations very strict regulations for security and out odor control to think that a youth would enter thesefacilities is mere nonsense it would not happen please dont handicap locals waiting to enter the industry due torational fears based on out dated Concerns related to prohibition These are professional businesses that deserve

the same respect as other businesses operating in light industrial My business would be no different than someonemaking lavender hand cream Also an aside as someone who aspires to produce high THC creams for topical use totreat skin conditions I highly recommend that the Council consider removing the THC tax at a future councilmeeting theres no way theres the tax revenue will be realized if that remains in fact i dont think any cannabisbusiness will choose to open if that tax remains THC tax will prove to be the the biggest handicap to the industrystarting in grass valley I have also been working in about a city at Elevation 2477Ihe last two years and I see howhigh are these taxes are already Just sales tax Nevada City tax and the excise tax and its really hurting theconsumers especially the elders of our community Who are you know really looking for high quality product so

hello good evening my name is john regalwith medicus industries in nevada city located on new mohawk road and

id like to thank the city council for taking my comments tonight i would like to comment on a few areas the first onewould be the medicinal designation that is under consideration its very important for dispenser used to have himadditional designation there are many patients out there that rely on cannabis products to ease their elements itsits a very real product very real solutions for these patients and adding a additional designation with allowdispensarys too provide for patients on a compassion program which allows patients to receive medicine at no costor very low cost to deal with their ailments the second area id like to touch on is licensing types and they needed tofill the for the farmers out there who lack the ability to process campus on their farmers lts very very expensive tobuild out the infrastructure having this type of ability For farmers will create job opportunities and new sources ofeconomic activity and job growth and an opportunity for the city of Grass Attic capitalized on that revenue streamTheres many many jobs that are needed in that realm the third would like to touch on is zoning and this is a bigone because the zone regulations that i reviewed that are currently under consideration Dont seem to really supportthe industry or provide for the best use of space currently dispensary s are limited to see three space heavy

commercial space which is more common with automotive shops roofing companies storage facilities etc and

theres a number of problems with that type of zoning besides the the fact that its there in more remote areas itallows for a greater Opportunity for robbery and theft and things of that nature it puts the patrons of this anddoesnt doesnt put them out in a place that they are more visible to law enforcement and able to have crimeprevention through a good design good public exposure further or not having properties zoned in areas that are

more prevalent it limits the available space for these businesses to operate and in fact will cause cost per square footto go up substantially because theres less available space and it will also displace other types of businesses thatneed to be in those spaces so it just seems to make sense to put dispensaries into an area that will supporteconomic growth alot of these dispensary s people that visit visit these dispensaries will also go to a dry cleanercoffee shop sandwich shop if theyre nearby and they need those services so i would like that to be considered as

well the fourth area is set backs set backs in place now were proposed setbacks it seems to me that you know

setbacks are certainly needed in there we are clearly are there for a reason however Cannabis businesses with theexception of retail are not out in front of the public manufacturing processing etc are usually off the main strip and

dispensarys are more in the retail sector these setbacks for processors and others just creates more problems forthem to find space and be able to afford that space that is city allows for a different set back limitation then grass

valley is proposing i would encourage you to look at those setbacks and work to be in line with those and finally fifthon my list here is the requirement on manufacturing businesses for their square footage limitation This this really

limits potential manufacturer

hi my name is maggie phillips born im a citizen of nevada county and have been watching local and state cannabispolicy developments for many years now but weve all learned over these past few years is that the statewideregulations for legal cannabis businesses are truly complex and unique to the canvas industry The City Council Dad

Hot Committee last met nearly four and a half years ago ln June of 2016 prior to state legalization Since then a

significant amount of state legislation and industry regulations have been issued an revised lts important for theCity Councilto make decisions and adopt an ordinance based on present day industry standards and market drivendata versus conversations from over four years ago Fears associated with prohibition and legalization have proven

to be unfounded and we can look to our neighbors in Nevada City as to what a successful emerging industry lookslike That is completely unnoticeable to the general community i care about the economic vitality of our communityand it seems were going to continue to experience increased economic stress due to covid cannabis is an essential

industry and has proven locally and statewide to stand out as a pillar of economic stability during economic

hardship i look forward to grass valley and bracing this industry and appreciate your time and consideration thisevening i would encourage the council to make decisions tonight that will help build a new industry and provide

Fresh opportunities for tax revenue Please look at the reality of what a healthy highly regulated industry looks like

and do not rely on stories of what the industry was feared to look like prior to legalization Lets put our economicfuture 1st Thank you

hello my name is FORREST HURD and im calling to leave Public Comments for tonight agenda item pertaining tocannabis allowance in grass valley many people might have heard about my son stylist HURD during the measure wwork And ongoing work in Nevada County as pertains to the rights of children whose lives depend on access tomedical products that are based in cannabis im calling tonight because i am just very concerned about Grass

Valleys decision to not allow for medical cannabis in their communities And ljust want to hopefully reiterate thatchildren like my son Silas who was in the papers and on the news whose life genuinely depends on access Live in

our community here in Grass Valley and when we only allow adult use essentially what were doing is saying that all

access is available except for those whose lives may depend on it Now I know that when people are not really upto state with the science and the situation that pertains to children in cannabis they hear the word children and theyget nervous but the reality is children with these conditions you dont hear about adults because they dont live tobecome adults Without treatment options when all other medical treatment options and we have neurologistsspecialists who are giving parents guidance in these treatments in all they need is a place to have safe in legal access

i would encourage grass valley who Not make it a crime in their community for a parent to legally save their childslife Please consider adding medical do your allowance is in your community Our community because Without thatwe are doing all of the four profit activity and none of the moral and ethical activities that comes along withbringing cannabis in our society please also consider expanding zoning for businesses reducing set back add a

processing license type and remove arbitrary requirements on manufacturing business is all of these things add upto more access for those who need it most and no one wants to go home at night and say yeah we allowed all of theparties but no option for the most desperate in vulnerable in our community thank you

hello my name is jonathan collier and i live at one oh six nine six cedar song road im a former board member thenevada county cannabis lines and the california grows association and the author of the craft kansas revolution first i

hope that this comment as well as all others are given that fold deal iwas somewhat appalled that during theplanning commission that the detail and death my comments as well as many others with her face in a single

sentence i hope the public process will be more fully respected tonight as someone who has had the privilege to sit

with various grass valley city council members and staff regarding what counts regulations would look like in the cityof grass valley ive always respected and appreciated the proship patience learning by the experience of others andrespecting the wishes of the constituency that the city is adopted it has now been over four years since many ofthose conversations began Cannabis has gained overwhelming acceptance throughout our country and across theroad There are still many difficulties in our state especially those associated with the traditional market that persists

primarily because the majority of jurisdictions although having popular support had failed to move fonruard withadopting the appropriate regulations lm encouraged that Grass Valley is finally given the opportunity for legal

entrepreneurs and professionals and mechanics industry to operate within the city limits however i am concerned

that this progress is in appearance only i say this because the canvas orders can be proved tonight that is so

restrictive but only in a handful of businesses can move forward if that i researched available properties that wouldbe available to kansas businesses given the current restrictions zoning and the set backs from residence in schoolsthere about thirty total units that can be used for cannabis permits within the city limits of these none are availablefor rent and one is available for purchase so in reality we are writing in order to allow for one possible business tooperate lt is the city strategy to restrict the number and size of business to make it friendlier to local businesses This

is exactly the opposite of what will happen with the current policy since there are so few available space is it willtake extremely well financed large businesses that youre a promise whether thats the purchasing a property orbuying out leases from existing business is something we also do not want to see these rates that we think theheavily restricted zoning and set back limitations that are being proposed send it to be allowed in C two zoning and

reduce or remove the set backs from residential zones we do not have to look far for successful models of regulated

cannabis industry i know there is a disinclination to look at nevada city as an example but at the end of the day theyserve much of the same community in savannah city s adopted their owners in twenty eighteen that had been jail

complaints and many of the fiercest opponents are now spanish allies once theyve witnessed the professionalism

and standards are these business owners if you create a broken system you are either not attract any partners orworse the wrong type of partners Go to system that works and youll be well rewarded there are a lot of wonderfuloperators waiting to be in their businesses Lets let them do it Thank you so much

maximizes compatibility with vendor equipment and other regional LMR systems well into thefuture
