Marijuana Production and Processing Moratorium
San Juan County has a moratorium on the siting of licensed marijuana production and processing. The resolution adopting this moratorium is found here Marijuana Production and Processing Moratorium GoMarijuana Production and Processing Moratorium.
The moratorium applies to new or pending applications for a building or occupancy permit, variance, conditional use permit, or other development permit or approval with respect to licensed marijuana production and processing. Resolution No. 15-2019 placed a six-month moratorium on such operations. This moratorium was renewed for six months beginning on October 2, 2019 in Resolution No. 34-2019. It exempts building permits for the alteration of marijuana production and processing operations legally established prior to the adoption of Resolution No. 15-2019, provided that there is no enlargement or intensification of the permitted processing or production.
