CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM 4A
STAFF ORIGINATOR: John Swenson, Public Safety Director
MEETING DATE: October 24, 2022
TOPIC: Consider 2nd Reading of Ordinance No. 03-22, Enacting Ordinance
Regulating Edible Cannabinoid Products
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
The City Council is being asked to consider the 2nd Reading of Ordinance No. 03-22, Enacting
Ordinance Regulating Edible Cannabinoid Products by adding a new Chapter 619 to the Lino
Lakes Code of Ordinances,entitled Edible Cannabinoid Products.
BACKGROUND
During the 2022 Minnesota Legislative Session, Minnesota Statute 151.72 was changed
regarding the sale of certain cannabinoid (CBD)products. This law took effect on July 1, 2022.
The new law amends the scope of sale of any product that contains cannabinoids extracted from
hemp and that is an edible cannabinoid product or is intended for human or animal consumption.
Previously adopted MN law authorized a product containing non-intoxicating cannabinoids to be
sold, but the authority to sell edible CBD products was unclear. The new law expands the
authority to include non-intoxicating cannabinoids, including edible cannabinoid products,
provided they do not contain more than 0.3% of any THC. An edible cannabinoid product also
cannot exceed more than five milligrams of any THC in a single serving, or more than a total of
50 milligrams of any THC per package.
Staff has researched the recently enacted MN Statute 151.72, reviewed ordinance enacted in
other Cities, participated in meetings and discussion through League of Minnesota Cities and
worked with City Attorney Jay Squires to develop this ordinance, staff is recommending that
Council add Ordinance 619 Regulating Edible Cannabinoid Products in the City of Lino Lakes.
The first reading of this ordinance took place on October 10, 2022. If approved, this ordinance
will be published for 30 days starting on November 1, 2022 and will be effective on December 1,
2022.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the adoption of Ordinance No. 03-22 with the following actions:
1. Dispense with the full reading of the ordinance;
2. Roll call vote for adoption of the ordinance.
