Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

5 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 2 costs, 0 mixed.

Cannabis retailers gain kindergarten location exceptions

Public prekindergarten and kindergarten buildings no longer trigger the 1,000-foot cannabis retail location ban or its related 500-foot exception condition. Retailers licensed before January 1, 2025, also get protection when the agency later discovers such a program within 1,000 feet. They may stay at their location unless the agency revokes their license.

Longer license renewals for cannabis businesses

Oregon's cannabis agency may set license renewal terms of up to five years. This covers marijuana producers, processors, wholesalers, retailers, and testing labs. The agency must find that longer terms support public safety and licensing goals. Longer terms apply only to renewals, not first-time licenses, and are not automatic.

Agencies get updated cannabis site maps

Oregon's cannabis agency must create and continually update a map of licensed marijuana production sites and licensed hemp operations. The agriculture department helps build the map. The cannabis agency must share it with law enforcement, water and environmental agencies, and workers enforcing cannabis laws. The law does not require a public map.

Hemp businesses face expanded storage inspections

Oregon agriculture officials may inspect stored hemp plant material or processed industrial hemp at licensed hemp locations. The law provides three days' notice for inspections at licensed locations. The expanded authority can add inspection-related compliance work for hemp businesses.

Police can order illegal-grow structures destroyed

An Oregon officer carrying out a search warrant may order hoop houses destroyed at the searched location. There must be probable cause that unlawful marijuana production is happening there. There must also be probable cause that the hoop houses are being used in that crime.
