DCR CORE RECORD NO. 404611

The City of Los Angeles Department of Cannabis Regulation has issued a determination and approval for annual licenses to Farmdale, LLC for the indoor cultivation, distribution (Type 11), and manufacturing (Type 6) of commercial cannabis products. Located at 6870 N Farmdale Ave in North Hollywood, the project occupies a 7,000 square foot facility on a 16,000 square foot lot zoned for Light Manufacturing (M2-1VL). The operation is scheduled to run seven days a week from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. with a total staff of eight employees, typically featuring three to four people per shift. Logistics are managed via exclusive self-distribution with an estimated trip generation of one to two trips per week. The project is classified as an environmentally benign infill project and is categorically exempt from further California Environmental Quality Act analysis under CEQA Guidelines Sections 15301 and 15332. While the project requires no physical changes to the site, the operator must maintain compliance with the Los Angeles Municipal Code and obtain necessary permits from various agencies, including the California Department of Cannabis Control, the Los Angeles Fire Department, and the Department of Building and Safety. The approval is subject to strict regulatory standards, where licenses may be denied based on public safety concerns, fraud, or the denial of access to DCR agents.
