Responses to Questions Asked at recent Council Meetings:

Questions regarding the current use and management of the Portland Street Pier

"Under the proposed medical marijuana ordinance, how and who would determine marijuana odors at property lines?"

Response from Joshua Reny, Assistant City Manager:   "This will be a challenging issue, but it ultimately comes down to a determination by the Code Enforcement Officer whether a marijuana business is in violation of the Performance Standard on Odor Management. The CEO would likely have to visit the property on multiple occasions to confirm whether there is a persistent odor issue and it is detectable off premises. If in the judgement of the CEO the odor is detectable, the business would be given an opportunity to remediate the issue, and if they are unable or unwilling then a violation may result.

Because odors can be challenging to control, a cultivation business should carefully consider where it locates to mitigate the risk of running afoul of the Odor Management regulations."
