Foley Hoag Event

New York Cannabis Applications Take Shape!

October 06, 2023

Many questions were left unanswered from the Cannabis Control Board’s September 12, 2023 meeting where the opening of an adult-use application was announced. Now with the issuance of guidance documents and 45 pages of Q&As – we now have answers to many of the outstanding questions: 

  • What types of submission documents will be required?
  • How many licenses will they solicit?
  • Will site control be required for all applicants?
  • How will the setbacks be determined between and among competing applicants all vying for the same block?
  • What should CAURD applicants be doing during this application period?

Watch our webinar and hear from Foley Hoag’s team of professionals who have assisted and worked with every type of medical and adult-use license issued by the State of New York to date, as we walk through what has changed, what remains the same, and, in certain instances, what questions remain open. From the imposition of license limitations, a clear delineation in priority in application processing, and the critical importance of both site control and social and economic equity status, our attorneys discuss the application process before the application window closes.
