SUMMARY OWNER: JBT Investments LLC APPLICANT & AGENT: Heritage Mendocino (Kyle Greenhalgh) LOCATION: 1076 & 1078 Cunningham Street, Ukiah (APN: 003-140-65) TOTAL ACREAGE: ±1.14 acres GENERAL PLAN: Industrial (I) ZONING DISTRICT: Manufacturing (M) CEQA DETERMINATION: Categorical Exemption pursuant to Section 15061 (b)(3) RECOMMENDATION: Conditional Approval, based on the Findings in Attachment 1 and Conditions of Approval in Attachment 2. PROJECT LOCATION The ±1.14-acre project site is located within the City of Ukiah, ±0.4 miles west of U.S. Route 101 immediately northwest of the intersection of Talmage Road and Cunningham Street, addressed at 1076 & 1078 Cunningham Street, Ukiah, CA, 95482; APN 003-140-65. The subject property is a corner lot bounded by Rupe Street to the north, Cunningham Street to the east, and Talmage Road to the south. The project area will be within the existing fenced area directly south of the ‘Cannabis-Related Business’ at 1076 Cunningham Street, north of Doolin Creek. EXISTING CONDITIONS The project site is presently developed with a ‘Cannabis-Related Business (Microbusiness)’ within an existing structure approximately 2,480 square feet in size. This primary structure is addressed as 1076 Cunningham Street. The subject property also includes an associated on-site storage facility approximately 2,700 square feet in size addressed as 1078 Cunningham Street. On February 19, 2019, a Major Use Permit and Site Development Permit was approved by the Planning Commission to allow adaptive reuse of the existing structure for the purpose of a Page 11 of 49 Planning Commission | Staff Report Modification – Major Use Permit 1076 Cunningham Street File No.: 23-8481 2 ‘Cannabis Microbusiness’. Since that time, the following improvements to the subject property and surrounding area have been facilitated: - Provision of a 4,237 sf parking lot accessed with 12 parking spaces (10 standard, 1 ADA, and 1 loading space) via an encroachment from Rupe Street for the Cannabis Microbusiness; - Curb and sidewalk improvements along Rupe and Cunningham Streets; - Exterior lighting for 1076 Cunningham Street (down-shielded and dark sky compliant; - Removal of detritus and automobiles from the project site, as well as adjacent and nearby parcels; - Provision of 5,278 sf of landscaping and street trees along Cunningham and Rupe Streets; - Replaced and improved fencing surrounding the premises of 1076 Cunningham Street. RELATED PERMITS & APPLICATIONS - File No. 18-3631: Major Use Permit and Site Development Permit to allow ‘Cannabis Microbusiness’ approved by the Planning Commission on February 19, 2019. - File No. 20-5112: Annual renewal of Cannabis-related Business Use Permit for a ‘Cannabis Microbusiness’ approved by the Zoning Administrator on August 31, 2020. - File No. 21-6140: Annual renewal of Cannabis-related Business Use Permit for a ‘Cannabis Microbusiness’ approved by the Zoning Administrator on November 16, 2021. - File No. 21-6503: A Lot Line Adjustment to adjust three parcels. Lot 1 (Historical APN 003-140-53) decreased to .82 acres. Lot 2 (Historical APN 003-140-54) decreased to .51 acres. Lot 3 (Historical APN 003-140-52) increased to 1.14 acres approved by the City Engineer on October 5, 2021. o The boundaries configured by this Lot Line Adjustment allowed for 1076 and 1078 Cunningham to be located on the same legal parcel. SURROUNDING USES AND ZONING The project site is located within the City of Ukiah, ±0.4 miles west of U.S. Route 101 immediately northwest of the intersection of Talmage Road and Cunningham Street at 1076 & 1078 Cunningham Street, Ukiah, CA, 95482; APN 003-140-65. In general, the surrounding properties feature a mixture of vacant lots, as well as commercial and storage/warehouse facilities, which are overviewed in Table 1: TABLE 1: SURROUNDING USES AND ZONING ZONING: USE: NORTH Manufacturing Vacant – Fenced Site EAST Manufacturing Manufacturing (Small Engine Repair; Construction Services); Commercial (Outdoor Fish Market) SOUTH Manufacturing and Public Facility Commercial (Agricultural Sales & Services); Airport (Open-Space) WEST Manufacturing Manufacturing (Biofuels; Outdoor Material Storage) Page 12 of 49 Planning Commission | Staff Report Modification – Major Use Permit 1076 Cunningham Street File No.: 23-8481 3 The project is consistent with the siting requirements below for a ‘Cannabis Related-Business’, as it is not within the restricted distance to residences, schools, youth-oriented facilities, or other cannabis related business. A ‘Location Map’ is included within Attachment 3. As detailed, below:  The proposed consumption area is not within six hundred feet (600 ft) of a school, and;  The proposed consumption area is not within two hundred fifty feet (250 ft) of a youth- oriented facility, and;  The proposed consumption area is not within or proximate to any residential zoned parcel or primary land use, and;  The proposed consumption area is not adjacent to or within 250’ of another cannabis- related business. o While another ‘Cannabis-Related Business’ was approved at 902 Waugh Lane, in 2020, it does not appear that the business will become operational, as no correspondence has been received from the applicant since May 9, 2022. Figure 1: Location Map As conveyed, the ‘Cannabis Consumption Area - Outdoor’ will be approximately 60’ to the west of the nearest off-site commercial structure, which is utilized for construction services and addressed at 1099 Cunningham Street. The proposed consumption area is approximately 500’ to the southwest of the nearest residential structure, which is located immediately northwest of intersection of Perry & Rupe Street. REGULATORY BACKGROUND On September 7, 2022, written and oral comment was provided to the Ukiah City Council during Audience Comments on non-agenda Items requesting that the City Council evaluate an ordinance amendment to allow for on-site consumption. Thereafter, the City Council requested that the Cannabis Ad-Hoc Committee review considerations provided during public expression in conjunction with staff. Subsequently, Community Development Staff facilitated a meeting of the Cannabis Ad-Hoc on October 19, 2022, and then addressed questions via email with members of the Ad-Hoc to develop a recommendation for modification of Ukiah City Code that addressed the public expression provided. On February 6, 2023, the Planning Commission unanimously adopted a resolution making the report and recommendation that the City Council adopt a proposed amendment to the City’s Page 13 of 49 Planning Commission | Staff Report Modification – Major Use Permit 1076 Cunningham Street File No.: 23-8481 4 Municipal Code, finding that the actions to allow on-site consumption were categorically exempt pursuant to Section 15061 (b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines. On March 15, after consideration of public input, the City Council voted 4-0-1 to introduce an Ordinance Amending various sections of Ukiah City Code to permit on-site consumption at cannabis dispensaries and microbusinesses featuring retail. On April 5, 2023, the City Council voted 3-1 to adopt an ordinance amending various sections of Ukiah City Code to permit onsite consumption at cannabis dispensaries and microbusinesses featuring retail. Since 2018, the State of California has allowed for on-site consumption where locally authorized. To facilitate on-site consumption of cannabis products on a non-event basis, a State Retail license is required from the Department of Cannabis Control (DCC), even if the primary undertaking is not commercial retail, but an associated activity, such as a hotel that wants to facilitate an on-site consumption area. As a Cannabis Microbusiness, Heritage Mendocino maintains a license to operate a Commercial Microbusiness (Lic. No. C12-0000258-LIC), which includes manufacturing (Level-1), distribution, and retail activities. Pursuant to California Business and Professions Code Section 26200, a local jurisdiction may allow for the smoking, vaporizing, and ingesting of cannabis or cannabis products on the premises of a retailer or microbusiness per the following requirements: (1) Access to the area where cannabis consumption is allowed is restricted to persons 21 years of age or older. (2) Cannabis consumption is not visible from any public place or non-age-restricted area. (3) Sale or consumption of alcohol or tobacco is not allowed on the premises. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The Applicant requests a ‘Cannabis Consumption Area - Outdoor’ as detailed in Attachment 3 in accordance with Ukiah City Code Section 9174.3(c)(5). This designated area will allow for the consumption of ‘Cannabis Products’ by smoking, vaping, and ingesting edibles under the supervision of staff. The Applicant has responded to the additional application requirements identified by Staff, including updates to the Security Plan, which is also included in Attachment 3. The proposed ‘Cannabis Consumption Area - Outdoor’ will be located to the south of existing microbusiness within the fenced area that was replaced and improved by the Applicant in 2020. No structures are proposed, but the Applicant intends to place chairs, picnic tables and other seating with umbrellas to improve the usability of the space. The fenced area creates a boundary for the ‘Cannabis Consumption Area – Outdoor’. Customers would be encouraged to use the seating areas located in the center of the fenced area and prohibited from use of cannabis products on the rear porch or near the fence line of the subject property. As required by the California Business and Professions Code Section 26200, the Applicant will ensure that the ‘Cannabis Consumption Area - Outdoor’ will not be visible from any public place by placing vertical privacy slats made of redwood within the existing chain-link fence. The ‘Cannabis Consumption Area - Outdoor’ will be restricted to persons 21 years of age or older, as the area will be accessed through the existing security check at the front-entrance of the structure. The customer would then walk through the store to the ‘Cannabis Consumption Area - Outdoor’. Alternative paths of travel could be made available to those with accessibility or mobility limitations. Page 14 of 49 Planning Commission | Staff Report Modification – Major Use Permit 1076 Cunningham Street File No.: 23-8481 5 As conditioned, only cannabis purchased from the retailer can be utilized within the ‘Cannabis Consumption Area - Outdoor.’ Sale or consumption of alcohol or tobacco is prohibited on the premises. No structures, grading or other improvement is proposed in conjunction with the requested ‘Consumption Area – Outdoor.’ AGENCY CONSIDERATIONS & REFERRAL On August 30, 2023, project referrals were sent to the following responsible or trustee agencies with jurisdiction over the Project (See Table 2). Comments received by responding departments and agencies are included in Attachment 4, and comments reflected within the Conditions of Approval, as appropriate. TABLE 2: AGENCY COMMENTS Agency Comment City Building Official No Response City Public Works Department No Response Ukiah Valley Fire Authority No Response City Policy Department No Comment City Electrical Utility Department No Comment Ukiah Municipal Airport Manager No Response Airport Land Use Commission Staff Response – Voluntary Referral Mendocino County Planning & Building Services No Response STAFF ANALYSIS Facilitating an on-site consumption ordinance could address reasonable concerns that without designated areas, increased consumption will occur in public places or multi-unit housing where it is prohibited. This increase in consumption, especially in multi-unit housing, presents risks to vulnerable groups such as children and the elderly from second-hand smoke. It also increases risks related to unnecessary policing and displacement of low-income and minority residents for cannabis use in their rental units or other public situations, which engenders potential criminal justice disparities. General Plan Consistency: The Economic Development Element of the City’s 2040 General Plan contains the following goals and policies that would support consideration of an ordinance amendment to facilitate on-site consumption at cannabis-retailers upon modification or approval of their associated Use Permit: • Goal ED-4: To attract visitors and provide them with the amenities and services to make their stay in Ukiah enjoyable. • Goal ED-6: To maintain a supportive business climate and a healthy economy that leads to the expansion of existing businesses and the attraction of new ones. Page 15 of 49 Planning Commission | Staff Report Modification – Major Use Permit 1076 Cunningham Street File No.: 23-8481 6  Policy ED-6.1: Regulatory Environment: The City shall promote business-friendliness in the regulatory and permitting process through collaboration, innovation, exchange of ideas and best practices. • Goal ED-10: To foster a robust and diversified local economy that provides quality employment and attracts stable businesses.  Policy ED-10.4: Local-Serving Retail: The City shall encourage the establishment and expansion of commercial businesses that increase local spending within Ukiah and provide needed goods and services to residents and businesses. The proposed project aligns with the City’s intention to encourage and facilitate the development of local-serving retail that is more resilient, in this case from the market fluctuations associated with the cannabis industry, while offering visitors with the amenities and services that makes their stay in Ukiah more enjoyable. Accordingly, Visit Mendocino has identified the cannabis tourism sector as an important area for future tourism and growth. Finally, it is recognized that on-site consumption considerations are increasingly common across California, and that the County of Mendocino has allowed for on-site consumption with associated retail entities since 2018 with no notable issues, nuisances or concerns. Presently, within the City of Ukiah’s Sphere of Influence (SOI), five (5) cannabis retailers or microbusiness facilitate on-site consumption in conjunction with their business. County regulations do not require the discretionary review of cannabis retail or on-site consumption on commercial properties, but rather a Cannabis Facility Business License (CFBL) via a Zoning Clearance from the Departments of Planning and Building Services (PBS) and Environmental Health (EH), as well as conformance with the State’s Business and Professions Code 26200. Airport Compatibility: Prior to the adoption of the Ukiah Municipal Airport Land Use Compatibility Plan (UKIALUCP), the entirety of the subject parcels were located within Zone A*. Within Zone A*, site-wide average and single-acre intensities of up to 10 people per acre were permitted, but allowed uses were otherwise constrained. It was the intention of the City of Ukiah to provide long-term control of the uses within Zone A* by either acquiring property in fee simple or obtaining easements restricting the type and density of land uses permitted. On February 6th, 2019 to complete the airport land use review process for this project, the City Council passed and adopted a resolution (2019-05) to overrule a previous consistency determination of the Mendocino County Airport Land Use Commission. Per Table 3A of the UKIALUCP, ‘Outdoor Non-Group Recreation’ (Small/Low-Intensity) is a conditionally compatible use within Zone 2, so long as the intensity criteria are met, and no airspace obstructions are facilitated. ‘Outdoor Non-Group Recreation’ would be considered accessory to the ‘Non-Conforming Use’ of the property as a ‘Cannabis-Related Business’ which was formalized upon adoption of the UKIALUCP on May 20, 2021. The Major Use Permit and Site Development Permit to allow this ‘Cannabis Microbusiness’ was approved by the Planning Commission on February 19, 2019. Given the size of the parcel (1.14 acres), the fact that no physical improvements are proposed, and the associated airport compatibility designations, the project is consistent with the UKIALUCP, as most of the site is within Zone 2, which allows for a maximum sitewide average intensity of 60 people/acre. Approximately .75 acres of the subject property is within Zone 2 (as detailed in Figure 2), therefore up to 45 people can be on the premises at any given time, which is well within the normal operations of the Cannabis Microbusiness. Page 16 of 49 Planning Commission | Staff Report Modification – Major Use Permit 1076 Cunningham Street File No.: 23-8481 7 Figure 2: Airport Compatibility Zones ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION The proposed project is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
