Default CA: El Cerrito May Allow Marijuana Dispensary

El Cerrito May Allow Marijuana Dispensary
Alan Lopez | Contra Costa Times | 05/16/06

The El Cerrito Planning Commission will consider recommending changes to the city's zoning ordinance next month that would allow a medical marijuana dispensary to operate within three blocks on the north side of the city.

At its Monday night meeting, the City Council approved the first reading of an ordinance requiring a use permit for such facilities. The council will have to approve a second reading of the ordinance as well as the recommended zoning changes before a dispensary can operate.

Under the zoning changes that will go to the Planning Commission, dispensaries could open within three blocks along San Pablo Avenue between Knott Avenue and Rose Street.

The council moved forward with the dispensary regulations as a compromise between state and federal laws, which are at odds over the legality of medical marijuana.

"The state of the law is still not certain," City Attorney Janet Coleson said.

According to the proposed zoning changes, medical marijuana dispensaries will not operate within 1,200 feet of each other; within 350 feet of any residential districts; within 500 feet of a school, or religious or community facility; or within 300 feet of any park.
