Josephine County added four specific conditions to a cannabis processing approval, including a 25% sourcing requirement from Tax Lot 314, a ban on water for processing (except emergencies), limiting commercial access to Dick George Road, and mandatory carbon filtration; OLCC tracking and county compliance will be used to verify sourcing.
