Council approves housekeeping ordinance to align cannabis zoning with specific plan
Summary
The council unanimously adopted an urgency ordinance changing the municipal code reference for cannabis dispensary location from 'C1 or commercial' to 'mixed use,' a wording change staff described as a housekeeping fix that does not expand permits or licensing.
The Canyon Lake City Council voted unanimously on Feb. 11 to adopt an urgency ordinance amending municipal zoning language related to cannabis dispensaries.
City manager Brown said the city's specific plan had converted the relevant area from a C1/commercial designation to mixed use, but the municipal cannabis ordinance still referenced the older 'C1 or commercial' language. "We're just changing the wording ... from C1 or commercial to mixed use," Brown said, characterizing the item as a housekeeping change and not an expansion of any permits or licensing.
Council asked no public questions and no members of the public spoke on the item. The council passed the urgency ordinance (cited at the meeting as ordinance number 270) by roll call vote.
Brown and council members said the change is intended only to align municipal code language with the city's zoning plan and not to alter permitting rules for cannabis businesses.
