Concord poised to expand cannabis business permits

The Concord City Council on Tuesday will consider an ordinance that would increase the number and types of city cannabis licenses available.

Among the changes set to be discussed are increasing the maximum number of cannabis-business licenses overall, expanding the number of types of allowable businesses from three to seven, and removing the distinction between medicinal and adult-use (recreational) cannabis uses as included in the city’s allowable cannabis license types.
