Lancaster is located in L.A. County, just 50 miles from the city of Los Angeles, the largest cannabis market in the state. In February 2017, the City of Lancaster passed an ordinance allowing the city to license cannabis businesses in concert with the Medical Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act (MAUCRSA) for the State of California. The Ordinance was amended in November 2018 to allow for adult-use commercial cannabis activities including cultivation, manufacturing and distribution and is designed to implement a highly regulated legal and compliance structure. The Ordinance allows licensing for commercial cannabis indoor cultivation including mixed light and greenhouse style structures, cultivation processing, nursery licenses, volatile and non-volatile manufacturing, infusion, testing labs and distribution. The Ordinance gives the City flexibility to amend it to allow for additional licensing in the future.

Medical + Adult Use Cannabis Regulation & Safety Act (MAUCRSA)

The act allows for state licensing of cultivators, manufacturers, dispensaries, distributors and testing labs. The State requires dual licensing (local and state). It also requires individual plant tagging (unique identifiers), which the Lancaster ordinance requires to be implemented for all potential cultivators as part of their comprehensive security plan. Per State and Local law, all cannabis businesses shall be required to utilize METRC which is a seed to sale track and trace point of sale system to track inventory and revenue.

Why We Are Different

Local, state, and federal governments are becoming more open to cannabis, fueling the growth of the overall legal recreational market across the U.S. There is a high demand for cannabis real estate and ancillary services, more than ever before. Brands need physical space for cultivation, storage, manufacturing and distribution facilities. The demand for these facilities will only continue to increase

The current cannabis real estate business model is to provide centrally located, fully entitled, secure, state-of-the-art facilities, with all utility needs for cannabis while partnering with cities looking to attract cannabis brands by offering expedited licensing, tax incentives, and other benefits.

Cannabis businesses statewide are seeking locations that provide state of the art, licensed, facilities where they can safely cultivate and manufacture cannabis. With the shortage of cities in California licensing volatile and non-volatile manufacturing, Lancaster will allow for both types of manufacturing supply to cannabis retailers statewide. Lancaster’s proximity to Los Angeles will provide the location along with adequate power, security & safety that cannabis businesses are looking for. We can fill the void in the industry.

Developed in partnership with the city of Lancaster and Developer can guarantee local licensing.

02. Knowledgable

Our team of real estate, legal, and cannabis compliance experts are dedicated to providing solutions to meet the demand in the fast growing and evolving cannabis markets.
