Good afternoon,
The DCC is excited to announce that tomorrow it will launch a data visualization
tool to help California consumers see where they can purchase safe and legal
cannabis products from licensed retailers, inform business owners about where
it’s possible to become licensed as a cannabis business, and support ongoing
conversations about access to California’s safe and legal cannabis market.
Using data compiled by DCC staff in February 2022 and working closely with
the California Office of Digital Innovation, the webpage will include a map,
statewide statistics, and a search function. It will underscore challenges to
licensing access more than five years after Californians voted to pass
Proposition 64, which permits adults 21 years of age and over to possess and
grow specified amounts of cannabis for recreational use.
The DCC obtained its data by reviewing local ordinances and information
provided on local jurisdiction websites, and by contacting some local
jurisdictions directly. The tool will be live tomorrow at approximately 10 a.m.
PST. An email will be sent tomorrow with a link to the live webpage.
Stay tuned!
