Delivery-only businesses unable to compete with neighboring Vista's booming in-store sales, city officials say
Oceanside could allow its first in-store cannabis sales under a proposal discussed last week by the City Council.
Joyce and Councilmember Rick Robinson suggested the city approve four on-site licenses and use the tax revenue for youth development programs such as community resource centers, scholarships and gang and drug prevention. Joyce and Robinson are the council’s two newest members, both elected to their first term in November.
City Manager Jonathan Borrego said the issue could return to the council in about 120 days with options for implementation.“I am so livid it is hard for me to speak,” said Suzanne Hume of CleanEarth4Kids.org, who has often addressed the council to oppose legal cannabis and other issues such as the use of pesticides, synthetic turf, beach campfires and leaded aviation fuel.
Vista used a lottery to award its licenses. Tomlinson and other MedLeaf employees have said at previous public meetings that it is difficult for their Oceanside business to compete with the nearby Vista outlets that allow in-store sales.
