The Avalon City Council on Tuesday, Aug. 5, unanimously approved a permit for Catalina Cannabis, LLC. The permit is for one year. The year officially started Wednesday, Aug. 6. The business will be able to apply for a renewed permit 60 days before the expiration date.
This was a Consent Calendar item. Consent items are voted on collectively, without discussion, unless a council member pulls one or more items for further discussion. Nothing was pulled from last week’s Consent Calendar.
If this seems familiar, it should.
