NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING 12-10-2025 BY THE ORANGE COUNTY PLANNING COMMISSION

Planning Commission
SUBJECT

Zoning Code Amendment CA 25-02 (County of Orange commercial cannabis activities and outdoor personal cultivation prohibition ordinance) an Ordinance of the County of Orange, State of California, amending section 7-9-103 of the Codified Ordinances of the County of Orange.

APPLICANT

OC Public Works/OC Development Services

PROJECT LOCATION

Unincorporated Areas of the County of Orange

PROPOSED PROJECT

Recommend for adoption by the Board of Supervisors the proposed Zoning Code Amendment CA 25-02 to Orange County Comprehensive Zoning Code section 7-9-103, County of Orange commercial cannabis activities and outdoor personal cultivation prohibition ordinance.

ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENTATION

This action is not a project within the meaning of CEQA Guidelines Section 15378 and is therefore not subject to CEQA, since it does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. The approval of this agenda item does not commit the County to a definite course of action in regard to a project since approval of the updated ordinances will allow the County to comply with State law updates regarding imposition of fines for commercial cannabis activities, to establish explicit authorization for the use of the abatement warrant procedure, and clarify procedures for summary abatement. This proposed activity is therefore not subject to CEQA. Any future action connected to this approval that constitutes a project will be reviewed for compliance with CEQA.
