Title
Bridgeville Qualified Patients Association, Inc Conditional Use Permit
Case Number CUP-16-753
Assessor Parcel Number (APN) 210-033-006
Bridgeville/McClellan Mountain area
A Conditional Use Permit for an existing outdoor commercial cannabis operation. The requested approval includes the operation of an existing 22,500 square foot outdoor commercial cannabis cultivation on an approximately 120-acre parcel. Water for cultivation activities will be supplied via a permitted onsite well. Water will be stored in three (3) 3,000-gallon hard tanks for a total of 9,000 gallons of water storage. The cultivation operations would use approximately 86,000 gallons of water annually. The cannabis is processed (machine trim and dry) in the applicant’s residence at APN 210-032-009, approximately one mile from the cultivation site, but the applicant intends to obtain necessary permits to be in compliance with the CMMLUO. A generator provides power to the well water pump and both are stored in an enclosure for noise containment. There will be no employees; all cultivation and processing activities will be performed by the applicant and family members. The applicant has enrolled with the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board Cannabis Waste Discharge Regulatory Program as a Tier 2 discharger (WDID# 1B161747CHUM).
