On Aug. 29, the owners of the Mt. Morris apple and aronia berry orchard will have a new store building to sell the fruits of their labor.

Redwood City weighs in on marijuana retail | Local News | smdailyjournal.com
Asked to weigh in on the parameters for allowing storefront cannabis within city limits, the Redwood City Council expressed interest in the development of up to six marijuana retailers.
During the virtual meeting Monday, the city was recommended to adopt a 4% tax rate for the retail cannabis industry which would bring in a projected $1.3 million in annual revenue if six locations were developed.
Once a storefront is built, the location would not be subject to the 600-foot requirement if a new child-centered establishment chose to develop in the area. Sizes of shops will vary depending on zoning with some potentially building greater than 30,000 square feet if retailers choose to develop in industrially zoned districts.
