(a) Possession of licensed premises. The person licensed pursuant to this article must demonstrate proof of lawful possession of the premises to be licensed or the licensed premises. Evidence of lawful possession consists of properly executed deeds of trust, leases, or other written documents acceptable to the local licensing authority.

(b) Location complies with the law. The location of any licensed premises for a license issued pursuant this article must comply with the zoning, location and spacing requirements in the City Code. The licensed premises must comply with the building and fire code in the City Code and the requirements of the International Building Code and the International Fire Code.

(c) Transfer of ownership. A license issued pursuant to this article is not transferrable in any manner.

(d) Control of odor. The applicant and licensee must prevent the odor of hemp from being detected by any person at the exterior of the hemp manufacturing facility or perceptible at any adjoining use or business.

(e) Disposal of noncompliant product. Noncompliant product means product that has a THC level of three-tenths of one percent (0.3%) or more on a dry-weight basis. Raw unprocessed hemp containing less than three-tenths of one percent (0.3%) THC when initially processed may contain a higher concentration of THC than three-tenths of one percent (0.3%). Unfinished noncompliant products produced, regardless of the type of processing used, must undergo secondary processing to lower the THC concentrations to less than three-tenths of one percent (0.3%) THC before it can be sold to the general public. Unfinished noncompliant product may be sold to another licensed hemp manufacturer for secondary processing. Noncompliant product that will not undergo secondary processing must be rendered unusable and unrecognizable prior to leaving the licensed premises. (Ord. No. 2020-15, § 6, 5-21-2020)
