ORDINANCE NO. 2014-019
INTERIM ORDINANCE ALLOWING MARIJUANA PRODUCTION, PROCESSING AND
RETAILING AS AUTHORIZED BY WASHINGTON STATE INITIATIVE 502 AND
MEDICAL MARIJUANA FACILITIES AS AUTHORIZED UNDER CHAPTER 69.51A RCW
WHEREAS, on November 6, 2012, Initiative 502 was passed by the voters of the
State of Washington, thereby amending Chapter 69.50 RCW and providing the regulatory
framework for marijuana producers, processors, and retailers to become licensed by the
Washington State Liquor Control Board ("WSLCB"); and
WHEREAS, on November 16, 2013, the WSLCB adopted final marijuana licensing
rules as codified in Chapter 314-55 WAC; and
WHEREAS, during the period between November 18, 2013 and December 20, 2013,
the WSLCB accepted marijuana license applications for marijuana production, processing
and retail facilities; and
WHEREAS, Whatcom County began receiving notifications of proposed marijuana
facilities from the WSLCB in mid-December, 2013; and
WHEREAS, the WSLCB anticipates issuing marijuana producer, processor, and retail
licenses to qualified applicants starting in late February or March, 2014; and
WHEREAS, in 2011, the Washington State Legislature passed ESSSB 5073, codified
in Chapter 69.51A RCW, which provides that qualifying patients or their designated care
providers may create and participate in collective gardens to produce, process, transport,
and deliver marijuana for medical use; and
WHEREAS, marijuana facilities, whether under Chapter 69.51A RCW or Initiative
502, are currently not specifically addressed in Whatcom County Code; and
WHEREAS, on September 28, 2013, Whatcom County Planning and Development
Services adopted Zoning Interpretation Policy: PL1-73-003Z which determined that
marijuana proposed uses, as allowed by Initiative 502, would be regulated in the same way
as proposed uses related to any other commodity that is grown, processed, or sold in
Whatcom County; and
WHEREAS, on January 16, 2014, the Washington State Attorney General issued an
opinion stating that Initiative 502 does not preempt counties from banning or placing
additional regulatory requirements on marijuana related businesses within their
jurisdictions; and
WHEREAS, on February 11, 2014, the Whatcom County Council adopted Ordinance
2014-011, an emergency ordinance imposing a moratorium on the acceptance of all building
and/or land use applications that pertain to marijuana producers, processors, retailers, and
collective gardens; and
WHEREAS, Whatcom County intends to consider the adoption of permanent
regulatory requirements specifically for marijuana related businesses; and
WHEREAS, while the permanent ordinance is being processed, the County Council is
adopting this interim ordinance regulating marijuana related businesses and, in support of
this interim ordinance, the Council makes the following findings as required by RCW
36.70.795:
1. Marijuana related operations are vulnerable to robbery and crimes of violence, as
evidenced by the actual robberies and violence that have occurred at state legal
marijuana medical sites within Whatcom County and elsewhere. The current
requirements for locating a proposed marijuana facility do not specifically address
the potential risks that these operations pose for surrounding residences, including
those residences within isolated communities with limited police protection; and
2. The adoption of this interim ordinance would provide protection to communities and
residential uses surrounding marijuana related businesses, as well as provide WSLCB
applicants the opportunity to apply for building and/or land use permits; and
3. The emergency moratorium adopted in Ordinance No. 2014-011 is only effective for
sixty (60) days. It is necessary to have this interim ordinance in place in order to
prevent future applications for marijuana producers, processors, retailers and
collective gardens from vesting under current law and thus subverting the purpose of
additional regulations to protect the public after the emergency ordinance expires.
WHEREAS, in accordance with RCW 36.70A.106 Whatcom County Planning and
Development Services notified the Department of Commerce of the proposed interim zoning
amendment; and
WHEREAS, this ordinance shall be effective for not longer than six months following
its effective date, but may be renewed for one or more six month periods if subsequent
public hearings are held and findings of fact are made prior to each renewal.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Whatcom County Council that the
Whatcom County Zoning Code is hereby amended, on an interim basis, as shown in Exhibit
A.
BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED that this ordinance shall be effective for not longer
than six months following its effective date.
BE IT FINALLY ORDAINED that if any section, subsection, sentence, clause or
phrase of this ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional; such
decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance. The Council
hereby declares that it would have passed this code and each section, subsection, sentence,
clause or phrase thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections,
sentences, clauses or phrases has been declared invalid or unconstitutional, then the
original ordinance or ordinances shall be in full force and effect.
ADOPTED this 25th day of March , 2014.
