The Cannabis Licensing Process <br /> (cont. ) <br /> Continued High-Level Pathway for Licensees Seeking to Conduct Retail Sales: Process for <br /> Required Local Retail Registration from Local Governments (Microbusiness, Medical <br /> Cannabis Combination Businesses) <br /> 10. Licensed business seeks local retail registration from local government. <br /> 11. Local government approves applicant for retail registration through means <br /> determined by ordinance (see Page 19 for more information about the retail <br /> registration process). <br /> 12. Applicant pays retail registration fee to the local government (see appendix for <br /> relevant fees in accordance with Minn. Stat., section 342.22). <br /> 13. Local government conducts compliance check for any applicable local ordinance <br /> established pursuant to Minn. Stat., section 342.13, if desired. <br /> 14. Local government ensures tax compliance, if applicable. <br /> 15. Local government issues retail registration to licensee. <br /> 16. Licensee is able to conduct retail sales now that they have received a state license <br /> and a local retail registration. <br /> *For businesses seeking a retail endorsement(microbusiness, mezzobusiness, and retailer), a valid local retail <br /> registration is required prior to the business commencing any retail sales. See Page 19 for information on the local <br /> retail registration process. <br /> Applicant Responsibility <br /> All applicants and licensees are responsible for working with their local government to <br /> ensure their success in the zoning certification and, if applicable based on license type, <br /> the local retail registration process. This includes reviewing local ordinances and <br /> understanding how the local government will be selecting applicants for a retail <br /> registration (including if retail registrations will be limited). Local units of government <br /> have the statutory authority to limit retail registrations if they desire, and applicants <br /> should understand this prior to making decisions about site locations. <br /> OCM will not facilitate communication between applicants and units of local government, <br /> nor can it mediate disputes as they relate to local zoning compliance or retail registration. <br /> OCM is required to ask each local unit of government where an applicant intends to <br /> locate a business if that business has met all zoning and use requirements. <br /> m MINNeSOTA Page 10 <br /> OFFICE OF CANNABIS MANAGEMENT <br />
