Dear Ms. Findley:
On April 14, 2023, the Community Development Department received your request for zoning information for the above referenced site in connection with a Commercial Cannabis Business (CCB) located at the above referenced address consisting of the following:
1. Dispensary
The subject site is located in the Industrial-General Commercial -Flooding Overlay (IGC-F) Zoning District (APN: 003-071-019-000). The following provides an overview of the adjacent land uses and zoning districts to the site:
North: Industrial-General Commercial (IGC-F), Single-Family Residential South: Industrial-General Commercial (IGC -F), Warehouses and Single -Family Residential
East: U.S. Highway 101
West: Industrial-General Commercial (IGC -F), Single-Family Residential and aStorage Building
Zoning Analysis of the proposed CCB.
1. Dispensary: Dispensary, which is most closely defined as Retail Sales per Zoning Code Section 37-10.420, would be permissible in the underlying Zoning District.
Analysis of Sensitive Uses.
The CCB must not be within a 600-foot radius of a day care, preschool, private/charter school or school per State Law requirements. The CCB must not also be within 1,000 -foot radius of a school (including college or university), private/charter school, preschool, day care, park, church (or other house or worship) , library, youth center, alcohol use, card room, retail firearm sales, smoke shop/hookah lounge, and CCB Dispensary as described in S.M.C. Section 5-07.10. Per available records, City staff has determined that the proposed CCB is located within a 600-foot
2 radius or 1,000-foot radius (measured from parcel to parcel), however, if measured from building to building, the distances are as follows:
1. 347 E. Alisal Street, off-site alcohol sales (500 feet away) CVS Pharmacy
2. 153 Griffin Street, on-site alcohol sales (622 feet away) El Kora Restaurant
3. 107 Kern Street, on-site alcohol sales (490 feet away) Los Altos Restaurant
4. 385 E. Alisal Street, off-site alcohol sales (613 feet away) AM PM
5. 221 Kings Street, Church (800 feet away) New Hope Baptist Church
6. 145 Griffin Street, Church (670 feet away) Church of Christ Salinas
7. 473 E. Market Street, on-site alcohol sales (755 feet away) Culturas Hidalgo y Oaxaca Restaurant
8. 458 E. Market Street, off-site alcohol sales (565 feet away) Shell Gas Station
9. 487 E. Market Street, on-site alcohol sales (920 feet away) Marion’s Night Club
Note the issuance of a “Zoning Information Letter” does not mean the written evidence of permission given by the City of Salinas or any of its officials to operate a CCB nor does it not mean “permit” within the meaning of the Permit S treamlining Act, nor does it constitute an entitlement under the Zoning or Building Codes, and a regulatory permit for the purpose of regulating a CCB does not constitute a permit that runs with the land on which the CCB is established.
Zoning information may be accessed via the Internet at the following link (look for Chapter 37 Zoning at the bottom left side column):
