CANNABIS & LOWER-POTENCY HEMP BUSINESS
CITY REQUIREMENTS AND REGULATIONS
Municipalities are required to allow operation of cannabis businesses licensed by the State of Minnesota. Once the State license is issued, the City will regulate these businesses locally by issuing a local registration. At lease once a year, cities are required to conduct compliance checks of every cannabis and hemp business.
The City adopted an ordinance covering specific local regulations, including maximum number of registrations to be issued and cost of registration.
- The City is required by State to allow at least one registration per every 12,500 residents, which would be at least one in the City of Grand Rapids. The City Council approved a maximum of one registered cannabis business (not including a Municipal store.)
