THC Edibles Sales Licensing Ordinance
The Minnetonka City Council adopted an ordinance at its Jan. 9 meeting.
The City of Minnetonka is proposing a city ordinance that establishes a licensing requirement for the sale or disposal of edible products containing tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).
Based on the most reliable and up-to-date scientific evidence, the rapid introduction of newly legalized edible THC products presents a significant potential threat to the public health, safety and welfare of residents, particularly among youth. Edible THC products have become increasingly common and are available in a variety of flavors and forms that appeal to children and young adults and may lead to negative health consequences.
The city seeks to enact this licensing requirement in an effort to prevent children and young adults from purchasing and using edible THC products. The ordinance would:
- Require a license for the sale of edible THC products that may be legally sold under Minnesota law
- Authorize criminal background checks
- Establish license fees
Prior to drafting a final ordinance for the city council, the city is open to community feedback and information regarding the proposed ordinance. You can share your feedback and ask questions in the spaces provided below.
