Retail cannabis rules approved in Rocky
Rocky Mountain House Town Council has approved second and third readings to amend the current Land Use Bylaw to incorporate retail rules around cannabis.
The amendments include definitions related to cannabis sales and production, and adds regulations on retail sales, production and cannabis lounges in central, commercial, highway commercial, general industrial and light industrial districts.
One amendment states that any cannabis retail location must be 100 meters from any provincial health care facility, public park, school, library, and public recreation or community facility.
A public hearing was held during the meeting, with two residents voicing concerns around the proposed distance.
