COUNCIL STRATEGIC INITIATIVE ADDRESSED:
Preserve and enhance neighborhoods
CITY ATTORNEY REVIEW: REQUIRED
SUMMARY STATEMENT:
Longview Municipal Code (LMC) Chapter 19.72 Medical Cannabis provides regulations for the siting of medical marijuana collective gardens. Per 2015 State legislation, collective gardens are no longer allowed in Washington State as of July 1, 2016. Thus, that LMC chapter needs to be repealed.
In place of collective gardens, 2015 State legislation authorized the establishment of Liquor and Cannabis Board-certified “cooperatives.” Cooperatives can have up to four members and each member can grow up to 15 plants. The cooperative is required to be located in one of the member’s “domicile.” Therefore, a domicile could have up to 60 marijuana plants growing within it. State law allows local jurisdictions to regulate cooperatives including banning them.
