  1. 3.USE2023 0019: Conditional Use Permit for marijuana retail, cultivation and on-site consumption. - APPROVED WITH CONDITIONS AS RECOMMENDED

    Applicant: Casey Wilkins

    Location: 10011 Glacier Highway

    DIRECTOR'S REPORT

    This application was previously approved under USE2021 0005, but the Notice of Decision has expired.  This would be the first on-site consumption approved in Juneau.  On-site consumption is an endorsement on the state marijuana retail license. The project is located in Industrial zoning, which is intended to accommodate operations that are noisy or have noxious smells.

    STAFF REPORT

    Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the Director’s analysis and findings and approve Conditional Use Permit USE2023 0019 with the requested conditions.

J.REGULAR AGENDA

  1. 4.USE2024 0002: Expansion of marijuana retail from approximately 430 square feet to 750 square feet - APPROVED WITH CONDITIONS AS RECOMMENDED

    Applicant: Casey Wilkins

    Location: 159 S. Franklin Street

    DIRECTOR'S REPORT

    This request is a modification of an existing approval for AK KUSH under USE2018 0006.  This expansion results in the entire structure operating under state security and control regulations.  The expanded retail area makes queuing on the sidewalk less likely.  The structure crosses property lines, and staff is unable to determine if it encroaches.  Conditions include lot consolidation and submission of an as-built.

    STAFF RECOMMENTATION

    Staff recommends the Planning Commission adopt the Director’s analysis and findings and approve USE2024 0002 with conditions.
