DATE OF REPORT:

January 30, 2014

DATE & TYPE OF MEETING:

February 12, 2014 Rural Affairs Committee

AUTHOR: SUBJECT: FILE:

The purpose of this report is to provide an update on the status of federal regulations for medical marihuana, and to recommend amendments to Zoning Bylaws 1675, Area 'G' 1335 (RLUB), as well as the Comprehensive Land Use Bylaws 2315, 2316, 2317 for Areas A, B, and C to establish Medical Marihuana Production as a permitted use in Agriculture land use zones; and to recommend adoption of specific land use regulations in these zones to help mitigate potential adverse impacts to adjacent property owners and the community in relation to marihuana production.

In 2011 Health Canada introduced proposed changes to federal policy for the production of medical marihuana. The Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (MMPR) were published in June 2013 and are now in force. For a period of time, until April 2014 they will be in force along with the Marihuana 5 Medical Access Program (MMAP). The MMAP will then end on March 31 t, 2014 at which time only the MMPR will be in force. Under the new regulations Health Canada is no longer issuing {{personal use production licenses" or {{designated person production licenses". Instead, producers are licenced to possess, sell, provide, ship, deliver, transport, destroy, produce, export and/or import marihuana for medical purposes at centralized commercial indoor production facilities. These facilities can vary in size and scale, and they are required under the new regulations to incorporate a range of security measures including visual monitoring and recording, intrusion detection systems, access restrictions. According to Health Canada, as of December 2012 there were 13,362 individuals in BC who were authorized to possess dried marihuana. This is up from 4,928 individuals 12 months earlier in January 2013. If the upward trend continues, local governments can expect a high degree of interest in commercial marihuana production throughout the province. The Status of Marihuana Production Facilities At present, there are 5 licensed production facilities in Canada- 2 in Saskatchewan, and 3 in Ontario. Planning staff are aware of 2 production facilities in the RDCK, both of which are licensed to operate under the existing MMAP. At the time of writing, it is unknown whether these facilities will pursue licensing under the new MMPR. Since January 2013 the Planning Department has issued 15 letters of concurrence, and responded to numerous telephone inquires from individuals interested in pursuing licencing under the new regulations.

Regional District:

"In general, most commercial and industrially designated properties are already in use for such purposes and were developed prior to land use regulations stipulating appropriate parcel sizes. Commercial and industria/lands are primarily oriented along highway corridors and/or in close proximity to municipal and/or residential development. If the ROCK was to consider allowing MMGO's on commercial and industrial zoned properties, consideration of location and parcel size with reference to adjacent property uses and the ability to accommodate required setbacks, security measures and waste product disposal may warrant consideration of Development Permit guidelines to mitigate potential conflict with adjacent : property uses.'' Next Steps Staff continue to investigate the policy and land use implications of MPFs on Agriculture lands. Since last March they have sought further clarification from Health Canada on the new MMPR and have continued to correspond with other jurisdictions and government agencies on how they are proceeding to regulate MPFs. Staff have also spoken with a marihuana producer in BC who is currently applying for licensing through Health Canada. Respecting the issues and potential impacts discussed in the March 21st report, staff have investigated whether to proceed with regulations, and how best to go about it. An analysis of each of the issues and/or impacts is provided below. • • • • • • •

Parcel size; Site coverage; Setbacks; Parking and loading; Size and scale of the production facility; Accessory uses; Environmental impacts; and Landscaping and buffering.

Parcel Size

Health Canada has confirmed that there is no size requirement for production facilities under the MMPR, but that all facilities, regardless of their size, must fulfill the requirements of the regulations, • including all security measures. Furthermore, the level of security required increases in proportion to the amount of marihuana produced and stored on a site. : Under the ROCK's current land use regulations the minimum parcel sizes in Agriculture zones for properties within the ALR range from 2 to 60 hectares. For agricultural properties that are not in the ALR, the parcels are all 2 hectares. The standard requirement for site coverage is 35%. Table 1 outlines the parcel sizes and site coverage requirements for properties in the Agriculture zones, as specified in the applicable zoning bylaws. It also projects the maximum building footprint and the setback potential, if a building were constructed to the maximum 35% site coverage. Table 1- Potential Setbacks Given Current Requirements for Minimum Parcel Size and Site Coverage W:\Departments\Piandept\PROJECTS- 5050\4800-20-MMG Medical Marihuana Grow Operations\Reports\2014-0212-MPF_RAC_Report.docx

from all property lines would achieve objectives for land use compatibility, as well as environmental protection and enhancement of natural features such as watercourses and ravine banks.

Several jurisdictions, including the District of Maple Ridge and the City of Ottawa regulate the location of MPFs in proximity to adjacent land use zones such as residential and institutional zones where the potential for conflict between the different types of use exists. In the ROCK, land use in industrial zones must be set back 25 m from adjacent residential and agricultural properties. Similarly, small scale food production facilities must be set back a minimum of 30m from adjacent businesses or residences. Staff believe that adopting 30m setback requirements from all property lines will adequately mitigate the impacts of MPFs on adjacent properties, including properties that are zoned for different types of use.

i

A marihuana producer in Maple Ridge who is currently applying for licensing under the MMPR expects that his facility will operate 7 days a week, and that he will be have between 25 and 30 employees working on site, the majority of whom will work between the hours of 7 a.m. and 8 p.m. In accordance with the MMPR, marihuana is shipped from the site via Canada Post. Production facilities do not have a retail component, and clients do not visit facilities for any reason. Consistent with the regulations for uses in an industrial zone (Bylaw 1675, sections 612 and 613), Staff recommend that parking for MPFs be calculated as follows: • •

1.5 parking spaces per 100m 2 of Gross Floor Area. 2 lloading space per 1200m of Gross Floor Area and 1 additional space per each additional 2 2000m of Gross Floor Area.

Size and Scale

Health Canada has confirmed that there is no size requirement for production facilities, but that the size of a production facility is determined, in part by the amount of marihuana that the producer grows (and stores). The more marihuana grown on site, the larger the building size. By regulating parcel size (~3 haL site coverage (35%), and setbacks from property lines {30m), the ROCK should have the tools it needs to effectively manage the size of a production facility. The ROCK regulates building height in a number of residential, commercial, and industrial zones, and ¡ therefore may wish to regulate building height for MPFs as a way to ensure that buildings are constructed at a scale that is consistent with the character and form of rural agricultural properties. Staff recommend a maximum building height of 12 m (rv40 ft) for principle buildings, and 6 m (rv20 ft) for accessory buildings.

Facilities

As per the MMPR, visual monitoring is restricted to the site perimeter. It should not include any monitoring of surrounding properties or public areas. Production facilities have exterior lighting. The facility in Maple Ridge has exterior lighting that is on . during the day, between the hours of 7 a.m. and 8 p.m., 7-days a week. At the advice of a security . consultant, the facility is not lit during the night. In a rural area where development is limited and there is little or no exterior lighting on buildings, a marihuana facility with exterior lighting could contribute to light pollution. Staff recommend that lighting for facilities (buildings and structures), as well as areas accessory to the facility such as parking and loading areas be regulated as a way to minimize the visual impact of MPFs on surrounding properties. Regulations may include restrictions on the number and location of lighting fixtures, as well as the fixture style to ensure that light is downcast from the building to the ground. 2.

Air Quality (Odour)

Marihuana Production Facilities may result in some odours and air quality issues. The following federal and provincial regulations address the issue of odours that may result from the production and disposal of cannabis (through incineration and com posting).

3.

•

Division 1, section 20 (1) of the MMPR specifies that cannabis must be destroyed using methods that conform to all federal, provincial, and municipal environmental legislation, and one that does not result in any person being exposed to cannabis smoke. More about incineration.

•

Division 3, section 50 of the MMPR specifies that areas where Cannabis is present must be equipped with a system that filters air to prevent the escape of odours and, if present, pollen.

•

As per the Code of Agricultural Practice for Waste Management, under the Agricultural Waste Control Regulation (1992}, wasted cannabis is an agricultural waste product that may be com posted on a property. Under part 6, section 19 of the Code, odours from agricultural operations are not prohibited, provided that all operations and activities are carried out in accordance with the Code. The assumption being that odours are an inherent part of agriculture, and cannot /should not be eliminated.

Waste Disposal

Division 4, section 53 (1) of the MMPR states that '''the microbial and chemical contaminants of dried marihuana must be within generally accepted tolerance limits for herbal medicines for human consumption, as established in any publication referred to in Schedule B to the 'Food and Drugs Act'." i

The regulations pertaining to pest control as outlined in section 54 (1) of the MMPR confirm that pest control products may be used to treat medical marihuana. From the regulations it can be inferred that a relatively small amount of hazardous chemicals may also be used in MPFs, although Health Canada has confirmed that due to the 'medical' nature of the marihuana being produced, use of chemicals would be limited. In accordance with the ROCK Resource Recovery Bylaw 2174, items such as biomedical waste, hazardous

A MPF is classified as a 'farm use', and is taxed as such in accordance with BC Assessment. As a farm use, M PFs will qualify for a series of tax exemptions, which will result in less tax revenue for the ROCK.

If the Board concurs with staff recommendations, amendments will be proposed for Zoning Bylaws 2315, 2316, 2317, and 1675, as well as RLUB 1335 to include a definition of MPFs. The Agriculture zones will be amended to include regulations for parcel size, setbacks, site coverage, building size and scale, and accessory buildings and uses. Parking and loading regulations will also be added to the applicable sections of each zoning bylaw. A Development Permit Area for MPFs will be drafted and referenced in each of the agriculture zones.

landscaping, and form and character (including lighting)would be addressed through the zoning regulations in each of the individual Agriculture zones. In considering this option, committee members should know that developing regulations for MPFs in the individual zones will remove the opportunity for staff to require a higher standard of development for individual MPFs (regulations are not tied to a development permit), which in turn could increase the likelihood of issues and ensuing conflicts with adjacent neighbours and the community.

1.

That the ROCK establish a definition for 'Marihuana Production Facility' in Zoning Bylaws 2315, 2316, 2317, and 1675, as well as RLUB 1335. That the Agriculture zones be amended to include regulations for parcel size, setbacks, site coverage, building size and scale, and accessory uses; and that parking and loading regulations be added to the applicable sections of each zoning bylaw. That a Development Permit Area for MPFs be established in accordance with Local Government Act section 919.1 (c) and (f), and section 920 to specifically regulate the unique aspects of MPFs including landscaping, form and character (including lighting), and siting.
