Alameda County Supervisors agreed that proximity to an Alcoholics
Anonymous meeting site is not an obstacle to issuing a cannabis permit;
but a school still is.
At issue at the January meeting of the Public Safety Committee were appeals on two permit applications. The sheriff’s department and a county panel had earlier rejected both applications.
The ordinance states that no dispensary may be
closer than 1,000 feet from a school, public park, playground, drug
recovery facility or recreation center. The Health Center lost its bid
to have that limit waived for two school grounds.
The Alameda County Resource Center, however, did convince the
supervisors that having an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting hall located
next to its outlet doesn’t meet the restriction. The two have coexisted
for years without problems. The decision did not award the ACRC a
permit; the dispensary is still competing with two other applicants for
a slot in the county.
County supervisors voted to reduce the six outlets
in the unincorporated areas to only three, each located in a distinct
geographical area. We Are Hemp is expected to get the permit covering
San Lorenzo and western Cherryland. A Natural Source has appealed the
denial of its application for eastern Ashland and Castro Valley. The
Garden of Eden, Compassionate Collective and ACRC are vying for the
permit covering eastern Cherryland and most of Ashland.
