WHEREAS, on June 23, 2020, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1100, which added Chapter 5.77 Commercial Cannabis Businesses to Title 5 of the Stanton Municipal Code (“SMC”) and amended Title 20 (Zoning), section 20.220.020.A Allowed Land Uses, Table 2-7 to permit and regulate Commercial Cannabis Business uses; and WHEREAS, following the passage of Ordinance No. 1100, the City accepted applications for commercial cannabis businesses, processed and scored them, and thereafter awarded a number of commercial cannabis permits in or around November 2021; and WHEREAS, following the initial implementation of Ordinance No. 1100, the City revised Chapter 5.77 to make the provisions more clear or to otherwise implement best practices through Ordinance No. 1124; and
WHEREAS, the City wishes to further refine and amend Chapter 5.77 by specifying that the City Council is the only body that may open a period to accept applications for commercial cannabis business permits. Moreover, pursuant to the City’s police power to regulate land use and given the City Council’s knowledge of the City’s local economy, the City Council is the only body that may determine, among other things, what types of commercial cannabis business permit applications to accept and which businesses, firms, and/or organizations may apply for them. The City Manager shall have the authority to cancel, postpone, modify, or extend an application period; and WHEREAS, the City also wishes to further refine and amend Chapter 5.77 by providing permittees that received a permit for a commercial cannabis cultivation business in November 2021 from the City may be granted a final extension of their respective permits to May 23, 2027 in consideration of providing the City certain public benefits and subject to certain conditions, as provided in this ordinance. The City Council acknowledges the additional challenges that cultivation businesses encounter, including, without limitation electrical requirements. Thus, cultivation businesses require more time to construct and to become operational. A fair and reasonable exchange for allowing permittees with a cultivation permit additional time to receive a certificate of occupancy are fees that are Item: 11A

based on a reduced tax amount that a cannabis cultivation business would have provided to the City had they become operational. Cultivation permittees are not required to exercise an extension period and any cultivation permittee that utilizes the extension period shall do so at their own risk; and
WHEREAS, on April 9, 2024, the City Council held a hearing that was noticed pursuant to the City’s normal agenda noticing procedures and considered the staff report, recommendations by staff, and public testimony concerning the proposed ordinance to add additional sections to Chapter 5.77 (Commercial Cannabis Businesses) of the Stanton Municipal Code and determined the ordinance to be exempt from CEQA.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON DOES ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1: The recitals above are each incorporated by reference and adopted as findings by the City Council.
SECTION 2: The City Council hereby finds that the Ordinance is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines sections 15301, 15060(c)(2), 15061(b)(3), and 15378(b)(5). The activity is not subject to CEQA because it will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable physical change in the environment; and the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.
Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. The revisions to SMC 5.77 are administrative because they relate to the commercial cannabis business permit application process and would provide an extended period for permittees with a cultivation permit to receive a certificate of occupancy. The proposed cultivation businesses would be established in existing facilities with no or negligible expansion.
SECTION 3: Section 5.77.065 is hereby added to Chapter 5.77 (Commercial Cannabis Business) of Title 5 (Business Licenses and Regulations) of the Stanton Municipal Code to read as follows:
“5.77.065 Reservation of Rights.
A. The city council shall have the sole authority to open an application period for the submission of commercial cannabis business permit applications. The city council shall also have the sole authority to set parameters for the type or types of permit applications that the City will consider, including, without limitation, which businesses, firms, and/or organizations may apply for a permit during an application period. These actions shall be taken by city council via resolution.
B. The city manager may extend, modify, postpone, or cancel an application period for a permit with or without cause or reason and without liability, obligation, or commitment to any person, party, firm, or ORDINANCE NO. 1142
PAGE 3 OF 6
organization. Additionally, the city manager reserves the right to request and obtain additional information from any applicant in order to conduct a complete review of the application or an investigation into the truthfulness of the statements set forth in the application or provided at any stage of the application process.”
SECTION 4: Section 5.77.0105 is hereby added to Chapter 5.77 (Commercial Cannabis Business) of Title 5 (Business Licenses and Regulations) of the Stanton Municipal Code to read as follows:
“5.77.105 Additional extension for cultivation permits.
A. The city acknowledges there are additional operational challenges with establishing a cannabis cultivation business including, without limitation, electrical requirements. Thus, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any Permittee that received a Permit for cultivation in November 2021 may be given a final extension of their respective cultivation Permit to May 23, 2027 (“Cultivation Extension Period”), subject to the terms of conditions in subsections B, C, D, and E of this section.
B. In consideration for a final extension and as a condition of the grant of such extension or portion thereof, each cultivation Permittee shall remit to the city an amount as follows:
i. A fee of $6.51 per square feet of the Permittee’s
proposed canopy space, whether or not artificial, natural, or any combination of lighting is proposed, for the first eighteen (18) months of the extension period; and
ii. A fee of $13.02 per square feet of the Permittee’s
proposed canopy space, whether or not artificial, natural, or any combination of lighting is proposed, for the second eighteen (18) months of the extension period.
iii. On January 1, 2025, and on each January 1 thereafter, the fees specified in Subsection (B), above, shall increase by the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index ("CPI") for all urban consumers in the Los Angeles-Long Beach-Anaheim area as published by the United States Government Bureau of Labor Statistics. However, no CPI adjustment resulting in a decrease of any fee imposed by this subsection shall be made.
C. The payments referenced in Subsection B of this section shall be paid throughout the Cultivation Extension Period on a quarterly basis and within thirty (30) days of a Permittee receiving a City invoice. As an example, only, if a Permittee’s proposed canopy space totals 9,167 square feet, then in the first quarter of the first 18 months of the Cultivation Extension Period, the Permittee must remit to the city a total of $14,919.29 to satisfy that quarter’s fee. That quarter’s amount is calculated as follows: ($6.51 x 9,167) / 12 x 3.
ORDINANCE NO. 1142
PAGE 4 OF 6
Also by way of example, only, if a Permittee’s proposed canopy space totals 9,167 square feet, then in the first quarter of the second 18 months of the Cultivation Extension Period, the Permittee must remit to the City a total of $29,838.58 to satisfy that quarter’s fee. That quarter’s amount is calculated as follows: ($13.02 x 9,167) / 12 x 3. If a Permittee fails to timely pay a City invoice for any reason, the Cultivation Extension Period shall immediately terminate and become null and void without any liability to the City and/or any of its officials, employees, contractors, or volunteers, even if a Permittee has expended any money, time, and/or resources in furtherance of their respective cultivation business or operation. The city shall not be required to return any amounts collected from a Permittee during the Cultivation Extension Period, but once the Cultivation Extension Period ends, as provided in this section, then the city shall not collect any additional amounts that would have accrued if the Cultivation Extension Period had continued.
As an example, only, if a Cultivation Extension Period ends for a Permittee six months into the first year, then the Permittee shall only be required to pay the city for two quarters of the Cultivation Extension Period.
D. A Cultivation Extension Period shall automatically terminate once the respective Permittee receives a certificate of occupancy for their respective facility, and thereafter, that Permittee shall be subject to all applicable State and local laws, including, without limitation, the provisions in Chapter 5.76 of this Code. Additionally, all Cultivation Extension Periods shall automatically expire on May 23, 2027 by their own terms and without any liability to the City and/or any of its officials, employees, contractors, or volunteers, even if a Permittee has expended any money, time, and/or resources in furtherance of their respective cultivation business or operation. Meaning, if a Permittee has been unable to receive a certificate of occupancy for their respective cultivation business before their Cultivation Extension Period terminates, for any reason, then the city and/or its officials, employees, contractors, and volunteers shall have no liability to the Permittee.
E. Any Permittee for a cultivation business that exercises its ability to use a Cultivation Extension Period as provided in this section proceeds at its own risk. No Permittee is required to utilize the Cultivation Extension Period, and any Permittee that chooses to utilize the Cultivation Extension Period shall have no guarantee that they will receive a certificate of occupancy during the pendency or at the expiration or termination of their respective Cultivation Expiration Period. As a condition to being provided a Cultivation Extension Period, the cultivation Permittee shall be required to sign an agreement agreeing to the provisions of this chapter and indemnifying the city. The agreement’s form shall be as provided by the city attorney’s office and may be executed by the city manager.
F. Cultivation permits are not subject to renewal requirements provided in section 5.77.110 until the expiration or termination of the relevant Cultivation Extension Period.”
ORDINANCE NO. 1142
PAGE 5 OF 6
SECTION 5: Any permittee with a qualified cultivation commercial cannabis business permit shall notify the City Manager by May 1, 2024 about whether they intend to utilize the Cultivation Extension Period, and if they do, then they shall enter into an agreement with the City by May 23, 2024 or within a reasonable time, as determined by the City Manager, in their sole and absolute discretion.
SECTION 6: This ordinance shall take effect 30 days following its adoption.
SECTION 7: The City Council hereby directs staff to prepare, execute and file with the Orange County Clerk a Notice of Exemption within five working days of the approval and adoption of this ordinance.
SECTION 8: If any provision of this ordinance or its application to any person or circumstance is held to be invalid, such invalidity has no effect on the other provisions or applications of the ordinance that can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this extent, the provisions of this resolution are severable. The City Council declares that it would have adopted this resolution irrespective of the invalidity of any portion thereof.
SECTION 9: The documents and materials that constitute the record of proceedings on which this Ordinance and the above findings have been based are located in the City Clerk’s Department, 7800 Katella Avenue, Stanton, California.
PASSED, APPROVED, AND ADOPTED this 23rd day of April, 2024.

REPORT TO CITY COUNCIL
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
DATE: April 23, 2024
SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF A RESOLUTION OPENING AN APPLICATION
PERIOD FOR COMMERCIAL CANNABIS RETAIL STOREFRONT
BUSINESS PERMITTEES TO APPLY FOR A COMMERCIAL
CANNABIS DELIVERY BUSINESS PERMIT
REPORT IN BRIEF:
At the April 9, 2024 City Council meeting, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1142, which affirmed the Council’s sole authority to open a commercial cannabis application period. The Ordinance also clarified that the City Council has the authority to determine which type of permits the application period would be for, and which businesses, firms, and/or organizations could apply for a permit during an application period. The proposed Resolution would set an application period so that existing commercial cannabis retail storefront permittees may apply for delivery permits.
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS:
1. City Council find that these actions are not subject to California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to Sections 15378(b)(5) (Organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment) and even if they were considered a project, they would still be exempt from CEQA under State CEQA Guidelines Sections 15060(C)(2), and 15061(B)(3); and
2. Consider and adopt Resolution No. 2024-12, entitled:
“A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF STANTON,
CALIFORNIA, OPENING AN APPLICATION PERIOD TO ACCEPT
APPLICATIONS FOR COMMERCIAL CANNABIS DELIVERY
BUSINESS PERMITS, FROM EXISTING COMMERCIAL CANNABIS
RETAIL STOREFRONT BUSINESS PERMITTEES AND DETERMINING
THE RESOLUTION TO BE EXEMPT FROM CEQA PURSUANT TO
STATE CEQA GUIDELINES SECTIONS 15060(C)(2), 15061(B)(3), AND 15378(b)(5)”.
Item: 12A
Click here to return to the agenda.
2 BACKGROUND:
At its meeting of March 26 and April 9, 2024, the City Council considered staff’s request to open an application period to provide the City’s existing commercial cannabis retail storefront business permittees the opportunity to apply for delivery permits. On-demand delivery of cannabis is when a retailer takes an order from a customer and then sends a courier to deliver that order, similar to the way Door Dash or Uber Eats works. Cannabis industry reports estimate that by 2025, the cannabis delivery industry will grow to about $30 billion.
Although the City issued four delivery permits, none of the permittees were able to become operational within two years by the November 2023 deadline. The City has an opportunity to benefit from the additional sales tax and cannabis tax (6% for retail sales) that delivery could bring in, while strengthening the fiscal viability of the existing operational local commercial cannabis retail outlets. There is a thriving cannabis delivery market inside and outside of the City, and Stanton businesses are currently missing out on those sales.
The City Council was receptive to staff’s request, and at its April 9, 2024 meeting, the Council conducted first reading of Ordinance No. 1142, which added Section 5.77.065 to Chapter 5.77 of the Stanton Municipal Code. The new section affirms the City Council as the sole authority that may open an application period for commercial cannabis business applications. It also clarifies that the City Council is the sole authority that may specify the type or types of permit applications that the City will accept and which businesses, firms, and/or organizations may apply for a permit during an application period.
ANALYSIS/JUSTIFICATION:
The proposed Resolution would open an application period for the four existing commercial cannabis retail storefront business permittees so that they may apply for a delivery permit. The application period would be open between May 9, 2024, when Ordinance No. 1142 becomes effective, through June 30, 2024.
There are multiple reasons why staff proposes limiting the application period for current retail storefront permittees at this time. Although the City issued four commercial cannabis delivery permits in November 2021, none of the permittees were able to become operational within two years by the November 2023 deadline. In contrast, the four retail storefront permittees have demonstrated that they have the resources, experience, and ability to open a successful commercial cannabis business within the City. Moreover, in some other jurisdictions, commercial cannabis retailers automatically have the ability to deliver cannabis in addition to selling commercial cannabis from their storefronts. Providing the City’s existing permittees the ability to apply for a delivery permit to augment their existing business could make those permittees more competitive with other retailers, increase their profits, and thereby increase tax revenues for the City.
3 FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended action.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
The proposed actions are not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (“Public Resources Code section 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA”) because they do not qualify as a “project” under CEQA. Section 15378 explicitly excludes from its definition of “project” the “organizational or administrative activities of governments that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.” (State CEQA Guidelines, § 15378(b)(5).) This action would authorize the City Council to open an application period for delivery permits for existing retail storefront permittees. This action is considered administrative because it will not result in a physical change in the environment, and therefore is not subject to CEQA.
Moreover, the action will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable physical change in the environment, and the activity is covered by the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment. Any permit that may be issued will be subject to its own CEQA analysis.

WHEREAS, in some other jurisdictions, commercial cannabis retailers automatically have the ability to deliver cannabis in addition to selling commercial cannabis from their storefronts.

Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. Opening an application period is an administrative matter, and any permit that may be issued will be subject to its own CEQA analysis.
SECTION 3: The City Council hereby sets an open application period for the City to accept commercial cannabis delivery business applications. The applicants that may submit an application to the City for this type of permit shall be limited to the four (4) existing commercial cannabis retail storefront business permittees for the reasons provided herein.
