CC Ordinance No. 17-2169 Medicinal and Adult Use of Marijuana.pdfORDINANCE NO. 17-2169
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CUPERTINO
ADDING CHAPTER 10.84 TITLED "MEDICINAL AND ADULT USE OF
MARIJUANA" TO TITLE 10 OF THE CUPERTINO MUNICIPAL CODE;
AMENDING SECTION 19.08.030 TO REPEAL DEFINITIONS RELATED TO
MARIJUANA; AND AMENDING CHAPTER 19.98 TO REFERENCE THE NEWLY
ADOPTED ORDINANCE
WHEREAS, in 1970, Congress enacted the Controlled Substances Act (CSA)
which, among other things, makes it illegal to import, manufacture, distribute, possess or
use marijuana in the United States.; and
WHEREAS, under the Federal Controlled Substances Act, 21 U.S.C. § 801 et seq.,
the use, possession, and cultivation of marijuana for both medical and recreational uses
are currently unlawful and subject to federal prosecution; and
WHEREAS, in 1972, California added Chapter 6 to the state Uniform Controlled
Substances Act, commencing at Health and Safety Code section 11350, which established
the state's prohibition, penalties, and punishments for the possession, cultivation,
transportation, and distribution of marijuana; and
WHEREAS, in 1996, California voters approved Proposition 215 ("CUA"), codified
in Health and Safety Code Section 11362.5 et seq., which created a limited exception from
criminal liability for seriously ill persons who need marijuana for medical purposes. In
January 2004, the state Legislature enacted the "Medical Marijuana Program" (MMP),
Health and Safety Code sections 11362.7 to 11362.83, to clarify the scope of the CUA,
establish a voluntary program for identification cards issued by counties for qualified
patients and primary caregivers, and provide criminal immunity to qualified patients
and primary caregivers for certain activities involving medical marijuana, including the
collective or cooperative cultivation of medical marijuana; and
WHEREAS, in January 2016, the legislature passed AB 266, AB 243, and SB 643,
collectively known as the Medical Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act ("MCRSA"), which
govern cultivation, processing, transporting, testing, and distribution of medical
marijuana to qualified patients. MCRSA expressly preserves local control over medical
marijuana facilities and land uses, including the authority to prohibit all medical
marijuana businesses and cultivation completely, newly-added Health & Safety Code
section 11362.777(c)(4) provides that if a city does not have a land use regulation or
ordinance regulating or prohibiting marijuana cultivation, either expressly or otherwise
Ordinance No. 17-2169
Page 2
under principles of permissive zoning, or chooses not to administer a conditional permit
program under that section, then commencing March 1, 2016, the state Department of
Food and Agriculture will become the sole licensing authority for marijuana cultivation
in that jurisdiction; and
WHEREAS, on February 2, 2016, the City Council adopted Ordinance Number 16-
2140, clarifying the City of Cupertino's longstanding prohibition on cultivation,
distribution, sale, and delivery of medical marijuana in the City to ensure that the City
maintained local control of these issues after passage of the MCRSA; and
WHEREAS, California voters on November 8, 2016 approved the Control,
Regulate and Tax Adult Use of Marijuana Act ("the AUMA"), which legalizes possession,
use, and cultivation of non-medical marijuana for adults. Under this law, cities retained
local control to prohibit or regulate adult-use marijuana through local ordinances, zoning
and land use requirements, and the state will not issue a state license in violation of local
laws; and
WHEREAS, while medical marijuana cultivation and all commercial medical
marijuana uses are prohibited under the City's current zoning regulations, the Cupertino
Municipal Code does not address cultivation and delivery of non-medical marijuana
within its jurisdiction; moreover, the prohibition against transportation of marijuana
through City of Cupertino is not consistent with AUMA; and
WHEREAS, SB 94, the Medicinal and Adult-Use Cannabis Regulation and Safety
Act (the "MAUCRSA,") signed into law in June 2017, made significant changes to
California's commercial cannabis regulatory structure. SB 94 in effect repealed the
MCRSA (medical marijuana regulations) and incorporated some of its provisions into the
licensing provisions of AUMA. MAUCRSA effectively set up a new hybrid regulatory
structure and created more operator-friendly standards than under MCRSA;
WHEREAS, many communities that have legalized recreational or medical
marijuana uses have experienced and reported adverse impacts and negative secondary
effects from marijuana establishments, cultivation sites, processing and distribution
activities including hazardous construction, unsafe electrical wiring, noxious odors and
fumes affecting neighboring properties and businesses, illegal sales and distribution of
marijuana, trespassing, theft, violent robberies and robbery attempts, fire hazards, and
problems associated with mold, fungus, and pests, and the diversion of medical
marijuana to minors; and
WHEREAS, the Santa Clara County District Attorney's Office issued a May 2014
Ordinance No. 17 -2169
Page 3
memorandum entitled "Issues Surrounding Marijuana in Santa Clara County," which
outlined many of the negative secondary effects resulting from marijuana cultivation; a
copy of this memorandum is attached to the staff report presented to the City Council
with this ordinance and on file with the City Clerk; and
WHEREAS, it is reasonable to conclude that medical marijuana dispensaries,
marijuana cultivation facilities, commercial cannabis activities, including marijuana
processing could cause similar adverse impacts on the public health, safety, and welfare
in Cupertino; and
WHEREAS, marijuana plants produce a strong odor, offensive to many people,
that may be detectable far beyond property boundaries if grown outdoors. This condition
also creates an attractive nuisance, by alerting persons to the location of the plants, and
creating a risk of burglary, robbery or armed robbery; and
WHEREAS, when marijuana is grown and/or processed indoors, growing and
processing equipment can have the potential to cause harm to persons or property by
creating fire hazards. Many cities in the state have reported or responded to fires resulting
from marijuana activity. Indoor cultivation operations are frequently unattended and
utilize high wattage grow lamps, generators, or other equipment, or may be illegally
wired to allow such equipment to function. This excessive energy use can overload
electrical systems and cause fires; and
WHEREAS, state marijuana laws do not confer a land use right or the right to
create or maintain a public nuisance. However, under MAUCRSA the city must adopt an
ordinance establishing laws and regulations on marijuana facilities and activities
otherwise the State may become the licensing authority. The MAUCRSA also requires
delivery services to be expressly prohibited by local ordinance, if the City desires to
prohibit delivery. Similarly, the cities have explicit authority to adopt and enforce local
ordinances, including zoning and land use requirements, to regulate marijuana
businesses or to completely prohibit the establishment or operation of such businesses
within the city's jurisdiction. No State license will be approved for a business that violates
local ordinances; and
WHEREAS, the City Council desires to update the marijuana regulations in the
Cupertino Municipal Code to maintain the City's existing prohibition on commercial
marijuana activities, and expressly make clear, in light of passage of the AUMA, that all
such uses (whether medical or recreational) continue to be prohibited in all zones
Ordinance No . 17-2169
Page4
throughout the City, preserve local control over such uses, and protect the public from
the health and safety risks described above; and
WHEREAS, the City Council has determined that express Municipal Code
provision regarding medical marijuana dispensaries, marijuana cultivation facilities, and
commercial cannabis activities will benefit the public by providing clear guidelines
regarding the scope of prohibited conduct and minimize the potential for confusion
regarding the City's policies, and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on
November 14, 2017, at which time it considered all evidence presented, both written and
oral, and at the end of the hearing recommended that the Council adopt the
recommended changes to the City's zoning code; and
WHEREAS, the City Council held a duly noticed public hearing on this ordinance
on December 21, 2017, at which time it considered all evidence presented, both written
and oral;
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Cupertino is the decision-making body
for this Ordinance; and
WHEREAS, in order to protect the public health, safety, and welfare of Cupertino
residents and to minimize the negative impacts from commercial marijuana activities,
including the personal cultivation of marijuana, the City Council desires to add
Cupertino Municipal Code Chapter 10.84 and to amend Chapters 19.08 and 19.98 to
prohibit, in express terms, most commercial cannabis activities including medical
marijuana dispensaries, commercial cultivation of marijuana and outdoor cultivation of
marijuana for personal use and to regulate deliveries, transportation, and indoor
cultivation of marijuana for personal use; and
WHEREAS, the City has analyzed the actions taken with this proposed Ordinance
and determined that it is not a project within the meaning of section 15378 of the
California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") Guidelines because it has no potential
for resulting in physical change in the environment, either directly or indirectly; and
WHEREAS, in the event that the actions taken with this proposed Ordinance are
found to be a project under CEQA, it is subject to the CEQA exemption contained in
CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty to have no
possibility of a significant effect on the environment; and

CHAPTER 19.98: MARIJUANA
19.98.010 Marijuana.
All commercial cannabis activities including marijuana cultivation, as defined in Chapter

SECTION 4. FINDINGS . The following findings are made under Cupertino Municipal
Code section 19.152.030(D):
Ordinance No. 17-2169
Page 12
(1) The proposed Ordinance conforms with the latest adopted general plan for the City
in that a prohibition against marijuana cultivation facilities, medical marijuana
dispensaries, and commercial cannabis activities, does not conflict with any allowable
uses in the land use element and does not conflict with any policies or programs in any
other element of the general plan.
(2) The proposed Ordinance will protect the public health, safety, and welfare and
promote the orderly development of the City in that prohibiting marijuana cultivation
facilities, medical marijuana dispensaries, and commercial cannabis activities will protect
the City from the adverse impacts and negative secondary effects connected with these
activities.
(3) The proposed Ordinance is consistent with Municipal Code Title 19, which currently
bans marijuana cultivation facilities, medical marijuana dispensaries, and commercial
cannabis activities under principles of permissive zoning.
(4) The proposed Ordinance is not a project within the meaning of section 15378 of the
California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") Guidelines because it has no potential
for resulting in physical change in the environment, either directly or ultimately. In the
event that this Ordinance is found to be a project under CEQA, it is subject to the CEQA
exemption contained in CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with
certainty to have no possibility of a significant effect on the environment.
SECTION 5. SEVERABILITY. If any section, subsection, subdivision, sentence, clause,
phrase, or portion of this Ordinance is, for any reason, held to be invalid or
unconstitutional by the decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision
shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Ordinance. The City Council
hereby declares that it would have adopted this Ordinance, and each section, subsection,
subdivision, sentence, clause, phrase, or portion thereof, irrespective of the fact that any
one or more sections, subsections, subdivisions, sentences, clauses, phrases, or portions
thereof be declared invalid or unconstitutional.
SECTION 6. EFFECTIVE DATE. This Ordinance shall take effect and be in force thirty
(30) days from and after adoption as provided by Government Code Section 36937.
SECTION 7. CERTIFICATION. The City Clerk shall certify the adoption of this
Ordinance and shall give notice of its adoption as required by law. Pursuant to
Government Code Section 36933, a summary of this Ordinance may be published and
posted in lieu of publication and posting of the entire text.
