A. A City License issued under this Chapter is valid only as to the Premises approved in accordance with the City License, and is therefore nontransferable to other locations except as authorized in this section. No City Licensee is authorized to relocate to other areas or units within a building structure without first obtaining written approval from the City Manager, regardless of any possessory interest or right to possession to such additional space.
B. No City Licensee shall change the location of the Premises approved in accordance with the City License until any such change of location is approved by the City Manager or his/her designee. The City Manager shall adopt a process (to include any necessary forms and procedures) for Premises relocation that includes, but is not limited to, the following:
1. The City Licensee shall submit a change of location application to the City at least 90 days prior to the proposed change.
2. The proposed location shall meet all of the requirements under this Code, including but not limited to this Chapter and CVMC Title 19.
3. The proposed location shall be reviewed and evaluated using review criteria as referenced in CVMC 5.19.060.
4. The relocation of a City Licensee’s Premises shall be subject to the prior review and approval by the Development Services Director and any and all other licenses, approvals, or permits required under State Law and the Code.
C. All required state and City approvals, plan approvals, permits, and licenses must be obtained before causing, allowing, or licensing alterations to, and/or extensions or expansions of, the existing Premises building(s), structure(s), or portions thereof approved as a location for a Commercial Cannabis Business.
