Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to cannabis; allowing a local unit of government to prohibit cannabis business operation within 500 feet of congregate housing for children, congregate housing for transplant recipients, and hospitals; amending Minnesota Statutes 2025 Supplement, section 342.13.

AI Summary

This bill allows local governments in Minnesota to prohibit cannabis businesses from operating within 500 feet of certain facilities, specifically adding congregate housing for children, congregate housing for transplant recipients, and hospitals to the list of protected locations. Previously, local governments could already prohibit cannabis businesses within 1,000 feet of a school or 500 feet of a day care or residential treatment facility. This change expands the types of facilities that local units of government can use to establish these proximity restrictions, aiming to further protect vulnerable populations from potential negative impacts of cannabis businesses.
