CLOVIS When cannabis dispensaries open up shop next year in Clovis, they’ll probably have to do so more than 300 feet from existing schools, churches, rehab centers, playgrounds or public parks, and more than 500 feet away from other dispensaries.
That’s according to an ordinance that will soon make its way through the Clovis city commission. The city’s planning and zoning commission met Wednesday to discuss the planned ordinance, which city officials want in place before the state begins accepting dispensary applications Sept. 1.
The Wednesday meeting took place after a June 30 study session including the city commission and the planning and zoning commission. It focused on zoning and where cannabis businesses will be able to sell their product.
