AB 2824 (Mia Bonta D) Cannabis: curbside pickup.
The Control, Regulate and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act of 2016 (AUMA), an initiative measure approved as Proposition 64 at the November 8, 2016, statewide general election, authorizes a person who obtains a state license under AUMA to engage in commercial adult-use cannabis activity pursuant to that license and applicable local ordinances. The Medicinal and Adult-Use Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act (MAUCRSA), among other things, consolidates the licensure and regulation of commercial medicinal and adult-use cannabis activities and requires the Department of Cannabis Control to administer its provisions.
MAUCRSA requires a retailer to have a licensed premises that is a physical location from which commercial cannabis activities are conducted. MAUCRSA authorizes a retailer’s premises to be closed to the public and authorizes a retailer to conduct sales exclusively by delivery.
This bill would authorize a retailer to conduct sales by curbside pickup, as defined, during permitted hours of operation. The bill would require the area designated by the licensee for curbside pickup to be effectively and clearly monitored and recorded by the retailer’s video surveillance system.
AUMA authorizes the Legislature to amend its provisions with a 2/3 vote of both houses to further its purposes and intent.
This bill would state that the bill furthers the purposes and intent of AUMA.
