How it works

How cannabis is sold in Redwood City

Redwood City awarded its first storefront cannabis permits only in March 2022.

Buffer: 600 feet from schools, childcare, parks, youth centres and libraries
Broadway: Three of the five listings, at 1764, 1870 and 2301
Missing name: Element 7 at 615 Woodside Rd is not on the register
Applicants: 28 existing delivery businesses applied in early 2021

Why was it a "cannabis desert"?

The Silicon Valley Cannabis Alliance's president told the Redwood City Pulse that there was no retail between San Francisco and San Jose along Highway 101. Twenty-eight businesses already offering delivery applied in early 2021 and four became finalists. Each must fund community benefits worth roughly $600,000 a year in total plus 4,000 volunteer hours, and pay a 4 percent general tax on gross receipts to the city.
