In response to the positive feedback from the statewide municipality summits held by the Cannabis Regulatory Agency (CRA), and in keeping with its commitment to engage in transparent communication with stakeholders, the CRA has announced the date and time for its next statewide municipal summit.
The summit will be held via Zoom on October 29, 2024, from 10:00am to 11:30am.
Staff from the CRA’s legal, licensing, and enforcement divisions will host a 90-minute Zoom call. In addition, there will be time set aside for the CRA to answer questions from local municipal officials.
Local municipal officials who have previously RSVP’d for one of CRA’s municipal summits will not need to RSVP again but should keep an eye on their email box for a new email link the week of the event.
New attendees who have not previously RSVP’d may do so by sending an email to CRA-SocialEquity@michigan.gov by 5:00pm on October 22, 2024. Officials who RSVP should include the name of their municipality as well as the name, email address, title, and phone number for all those planning to attend.
Any questions for the CRA that may be addressed during the municipal summit should be sent to CRA-SocialEquity@michigan.gov. The CRA will confirm attendance via email, including the Zoom link, in the week prior to the date of the summit.
In addition to the municipality summit, the following municipality resources are available on the CRA website:
- A two-hour video in which the CRA compiled information from industry stakeholders, lawyers, and municipal officials, answering many of the questions that the CRA receives from local government officials – the video is available in the CRA’s video library, which can be found by clicking on the Resources tab.
A Municipal Guide in which the CRA answers many of the most commonly-asked questions from municipal officials, including adult-use and medical facility licensing questions, as well as enforcement questions – the municipal guide is available in the Other Resources section of the CRA’s Laws, Rules, & Other Resources page
