Examination Information

Each licensed recreational marijuana dispensary operator shall comply with the following operating regulations in addition to any other state or local rules and regulations:

A. Recreational marijuana dispensaries shall open for business no earlier than 9:00 a.m. and close no later than 9:00 p.m. any day of the week except Sunday, on which day such dispensaries must close by 6:00 p.m.

B. Recreational marijuana dispensaries must at all times be operated in strict compliance with Oregon Administrative Rules, Oregon Revised Statutes, this Chapter, building and fire codes and all other rules and regulations directly or indirectly relating to marijuana and the receipt, distribution, dispensing, transferring, advertising and packaging thereof, as well as the security requirements, possession limits, and location and zoning requirements of recreational marijuana dispensaries.

C. The recreational marijuana dispensary operator's license issued by the Oregon Liquor Control Commission and the license certificate issued by the City must be prominently displayed in an easily visible location inside the dispensary at all times. All recreational dispensers employed by, or any person serving as a volunteer dispenser or providing any other dispensary-related services for the dispensary operator, must have their OLCC marijuana handler's permit and the recreational marijuana dispenser's permit issued by the City on their persons at all times while working or volunteering at the dispensary.

D. The recreational dispensary must not manufacture or produce any extracts, oils, resins or similar derivatives of marijuana on-site and must not use open flames or butane or other corrosive gases in the preparation of any product.

E. The recreational dispensary must be located in a permanent building and may not locate in a trailer, cargo container or motor vehicle and shall not offer drive-through services. Outdoor storage of merchandise, raw materials or other material associated with the recreational dispensary is prohibited.

F. No marijuana or paraphernalia shall be displayed or kept in a dispensary so as to be visible from the outside of the licensed premises. Marijuana and tobacco products must not be inhaled (smoked or vaporized), ingested (orally, sublingually or rectally), topically applied or otherwise consumed, in any manner that creates any pharmaceutical effect or chemical influences on a person while on the premises of the recreational dispensary.

G. The recreational dispensary must utilize an air filtration and ventilation system which, to the greatest extent feasible, confines all marijuana-related odors within the recreational dispensary rather than allowing such odors to escape outside. Sufficient measures and means of preventing odors, debris, fluids and other substances from exiting the dispensary must be in effect at all times.

H. The recreational dispensary shall require each person who delivers, transfers or provides marijuana to the dispensary to sign a written waiver/release stating the person releases all claims to the marijuana and agrees that the recreational dispensary will destroy any marijuana that tests positive for pesticides, mold or mildew. The recreational dispensary will document who the marijuana was received from, how much was received and the date it was destroyed. The recreational dispensary must provide for secure disposal of all marijuana that has tested positive for pesticides, mold, or mildew as well as, all remnants and by-products of all marijuana received, but shall not place such material within the dispensary's exterior refuse containers.

I. No minors shall be allowed in a recreational marijuana dispensary.
