Cannabis legal resource to be released May 22, 2018

AUMA is working with Reynolds Mirth Richards and Farmer LLP to develop a toolkit for municipalities to help with the impending legalization of cannabis for recreational use. This resource will contain easy-to-use checklists, step-by-step instructions, and sample bylaw provisions for:

  • Land use bylaw amendments;
  • Business licensing bylaw amendments;
  • Nuisance bylaw amendments; and
  • Public spaces or community standards bylaw amendments.

The tool kit will also address future issues such as edibles and cannabis lounges, and will touch on the important role of community consultation and education. The resource will be available to AUMA members on May 22, 2018.
