Gold Club LLC LCA26-0000176

The Department of Cannabis Control has approved a Medium Outdoor commercial cannabis cultivation license for Gold Club LLC at 363 Steeds Way, Mountain Ranch, California, under license number LCA26-0000176. The operation will utilize a 217-acre parcel zoned Agricultural (A1), historically used for goat farming and rural agriculture, with a total permitted cultivation canopy of 33,375 square feet divided among three designated outdoor areas. Cultivation will occur exclusively outdoors using native soil and fabric smart pots arranged in rows with minimum six-foot walkways for operational access. No indoor facilities or ancillary activities such as manufacturing, processing, distribution, or retail sales are permitted on-site; all harvested biomass must be removed the same day and transported exclusively to off-site licensed processing locations. The license is governed under the Business and Profession Code, Division 10, Chapter 2, Section 26012, and the project is tracked under DCC24-0038 with a posted forecast date of July 2, 2026. Environmental review and regulatory oversight are managed by the Department of Cannabis Control, with Jacob Schmitz, Environmental Scientist, serving as the primary point of contact for inquiries. The facility is entirely external in nature, relying on natural growing conditions and strict protocol for harvest removal to comply with state regulatory standards, ensuring no on-site processing or storage of cannabis products occurs.
