The Oakland Cannabis Regulation and Revenue Ordinance Oversight Committee is working on guidelines for the Measure Z Clubs that are currently operating under the three year old law. Due to past opposition the Committee was not able to meet for over a year but with a new mayor supporting the will of the voters progress is being made.

Measure Z made private adult cannabis sales, cultivation and possession the lowest law enforcement priority and calls on the city to tax and regulate as soon as possible under state law.

The Measure Z Committee is looking into appropriate zoning laws, similar to the restrictions on restaurants that serve booze. Other issues under discussion are proper ventilation for smoking areas, limiting the number of members clubs are allowed to have, and how to structure permit fees.

Also the committee is scheduled to present it's annual report to the Public Safety Committee on April 24th and to the full City Council on May 1st.

The Oversight Committee meets the third Thursday of every month at 6 PM in Oakland City Council Chambers in the Oakland City Hall building.
