Applications and a medical start

The city took applications by appointment in two windows, September 16 to October 16 and October 26 to November 25, and said there would be no new lottery; those who miss the windows go on a waiting list. The story began with Measure BB in November 2014, which regulated medical collectives, and a licensing lottery in 2015 drew 627 applicants, according to ABC7. Adult-use rules came later, with their own cap and merit-based scoring. One brand appears twice on the list: Catalyst holds one licence on Pullman Street and another, Catalyst OC3, on Halladay Street.

If you are shopping rather than applying, run the DCC search, read the QR certificate and confirm the excise tax on the receipt. The licence check guide and the California hub have the details.
