Goodview council approves conditional use permit for cannabis microbusiness amid neighbor odor concerns
Summary
The Goodview City Council approved Resolution No. 1299 to grant a Conditional Use Permit to Avalon Extracts LLC for a cannabis microbusiness at 1140 72nd Avenue after a public hearing in which nearby property owners raised concerns about odor; the vote was 4–1, with Councilmember Cassandra Gilliam dissenting.
The Goodview City Council on March 16 approved a Conditional Use Permit for Avalon Extracts LLC to operate a licensed cannabis microbusiness with extraction, production and cultivation endorsements at 1140 72nd Avenue.
Mr. Matt Ottenberg, owner of Avalon Extracts LLC, presented the company’s plan during a public hearing opened at 5:06 p.m. Ottenberg told the council and attendees that the company’s equipment is state tested and said, “there should not be any distinct odor to the residents in the area.” Nearby property owners Andy Loos and Caleb Storm asked the council and the applicant how odor would be managed and whether neighbors would be affected.
After the public hearing, the council adopted Resolution No. 1299 (motion: Councilmember Charlie Andring; second: Councilmember Richard Ledebuhr). The resolution passed 4–1; Councilmember Cassandra Gilliam cast the lone dissenting vote. The council did not record additional permit conditions in the minutes beyond the site, endorsements, and standard CUP process described at the hearing.
The CUP authorizes operation in the city’s M-1 Light Manufacturing zone. The council closed the public hearing and reopened the regular meeting at 5:38 p.m. The minutes do not specify follow-up monitoring steps, mitigation measures, or inspection schedules; those details are not specified in the record and, if required, will be established through permit conditions or city staff follow-up.
The permit approval enables Avalon Extracts to seek required city and state licensing steps to begin production, subject to any conditions imposed by staff or the council in subsequent proceedings.
