Pontiac Marihuana Business Commission Meeting 04-21-2026

The City of Pontiac's Marihuana Business Commission held a meeting on April 21, 2026, primarily to address an administrative appeal by Pontiac Retailer Inc. regarding the suspension and revocation of their conditional adult use marijuana retailer permit. The core issue discussed was whether Pontiac Retailer Inc. had obtained the required site plan approval within the mandated six-month period following the issuance of their conditional permit. The commission reviewed legal arguments, ordinance interpretations, and hearing officer recommendations, concluding that the site plan approval obtained was only for medical marijuana use and not for adult use, which required a separate approval process. The commission voted unanimously to deny the appeal and uphold the revocation of the conditional permit due to noncompliance with the adult use site plan approval requirements. No new contracts, budget allocations, or procurement actions were discussed during the meeting.
