SEC 104.23. STOREFRONT RETAILER EMBLEM PROGRAM. (Amended by Ord. No. 187,562, Eff. 7/6/22.) (a) Purpose.
- Unlicensed cannabis businesses threaten the health and safety of cannabis consumers by selling products that are cultivated, manufactured, prepared, and processed outside of the regulated cannabis marketplace. These products are tainted, contaminated, mislabeled, unlabeled, or misbranded, and may cause serious injury or illness if consumed. Unlicensed and unregulated cannabis stores harm the peace, comfort, and welfare of communities and people who live and work nearby. These stores are more likely to operate outside of proscribed hours of operation without meeting locational and operational standards, and are more likely to sell cannabis in quantities that exceed legal limits and sell cannabis to minors in violation of applicable law.
- Cannabis consumers must be informed whether a retail cannabis business is unlicensed before having to enter the premises and must understand the health risks and consequences of shopping at an unlicensed cannabis business.....
- The Emblem Program for Authorized Cannabis Stores (Program) is administered by the County of Los Angeles in partnership with cities within the County of Los Angeles as a cross-jurisdictional effort to deter the operation of unlicensed cannabis businesses. ....
- 4. The Program is not intended to promote the use, possession, distribution, manufacturing, sale, or cultivation of cannabis or cannabis products, or to engage in any actions that conflict with any applicable local, state, or federal laws.
