Overview
This bill would allow local jurisdictions to permit licensed cannabis retailers and microbusinesses to sell or deliver cannabis products to customers in motor vehicles through a drive-through window, pass-out window, or slide-out tray. Sales would need to occur through a secure window with a security drawer, and the bill excludes retailers that only offer delivery or don’t have a public retail space. Existing law prohibits such sales, but this bill modifies that restriction.
Key provisions
- Local jurisdictions can authorize drive-through cannabis sales.
- Sales must occur through a fixed-pane security window with a security drawer.
- Retailers that already conduct drive-through sales before January 1, 2027, are exempt from certain requirements.
- The bill excludes retailers that only deliver cannabis or don’t have a public retail location.
- Sales must comply with existing cannabis regulations and department rules.
- Local jurisdictions retain the authority to regulate drive-through sales.
