Dear Ms. Fontius:
On May 17, 2024, 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 Mixed Arterial Frontage (MAF) Zoning District (APN: 002-031- 023-000). The following provides an overview of the adjacent land uses and zoning districts to the site:
North: Mixed Arterial Frontage (MAF), Single-Family Dwelling unit and vacant lot South: Industrial General Commercial (IGC) and Mixed Arterial Frontage (MAF), Vacant lot and Warehouse
East: Mixed Arterial Frontage (MAF), Multiple Detached-Dwelling units West: Industrial General, Toro Petroleum Company
Zoning Analysis of the proposed CCB.
1. Dispensary: Dispensary, which is most closely defined as Retail Sales per Zoning Code Section 37-10.420, normally would be permissible in the underlying MAF Zoning District with an administrative Site Plan Review. The subject location is located within 1,000 feet of a school (Sacred Heart) as measure d parcel to parcel. Per Section 5 -07.27(a)(1), no commercial cannabis business may operate within 1,000 feet of a school, college, or university. In addition, the subject location is adjacent to residential uses. Per Section 5- 07-27(d) No commercial cannab is business may operate within any residential area or district of the city or adjacent to a residential area or district if, in the opinion of the chief of police or the community development director, the operation of a commercial cannabis business in such location would tend to cause a public nuisance or a situation which may result in repeated police department response or a negative impact on the adjacent residential units.
2 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 radius or 1,000-foot radius (measured from parcel to parcel) of the following, the distances are as follows:
1. 101 West Market Street, School/Church (950 feet away) Sacred Heart School /Sacred Heart Church
2. 154 West Market Street, off-site alcohol sales (540 feet away) Jimmy’s Market
3. 10 New Street, Residential (Adjacent)
4. 224 & 226 West Market Street, Residential (Adjacent)
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 Streamlining 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.
