Title, Order
Amending the Schedule of Fees by Adding Retail Marijuana Licensing Fees
This Order will amend the City's Schedule of Fees by adding fees for licensing of retail marijuana
establishments.
The State of Maine recently passed rules implementing the Marijuana Legalization Act, the
recreational marijuana law passed in November 2016 and amended since then. The state requires
retail or "adult use" marijuana establishments to obtain local authorization before being granted a
license through the state. Title 28-B, Section 401(3) of the Marijuana Legalization Act allows the City
to collect fees as part of the local authorization process.
This Order would add fees for retail marijuana establishments to our Schedule of Fees.
