Brandon Utke

Brandon Utke has been licensed to operate a Retail Non-Storefront cannabis business at 8880 Elder Creek Road in Sacramento, California, within an existing 39,873 square foot warehouse, with 12,569 square feet allocated for storage and distribution activities. The facility, built in 1985, features a gated perimeter and paved parking, and the operation will not involve public storefronts or any new construction. The California Department of Cannabis Control approved the license based on compliance with state regulations, specifically confirming eligibility for a Class 1 Categorical Exemption under California Code of Regulations Title 14, Section 15301, which determines the project poses no significant environmental impact on traffic, noise, air quality, or water systems. The approval process was administered through the Department’s Cultivation Licensing Branch, with Karin Linnen serving as the primary point of contact, and the license was issued on August 4, 2025, with public notice posted on August 5, 2025. No federal acquisition regulations, contract clauses, pricing data, delivery schedules, inspection protocols, or procurement evaluation criteria apply, as this is a state-issued licensing action under California’s Business and Professions Code Division 10, Chapter 2, Section 26012, not a federal procurement contract. There are no identified contract values, payment instructions, invoicing methods, accounting codes, or formal contracting officer representatives, and no representations regarding small business status, UEI, or socioeconomic certifications were submitted or required. The operation is solely regulated by state cannabis licensing and environmental review standards, with no military, federal packaging, or logistics specifications applicable.
