PL-25-306 Greenfield Farm

The Greenfield Farm project, identified as PL-25-306, is a proposal by applicant Sergey Yusupov for a major use permit from Lake County to establish an outdoor commercial cannabis operation at 20150 Black Bass Pass Road, Lower Lake, California. The project involves the cultivation of cannabis in pots or above-ground planter beds across approximately two acres of a 40.56-acre parcel, featuring a total outdoor canopy area of 86,308 square feet. To support these operations, the applicant is seeking two A-Type 3 Outdoor licenses and a Type 13 Distribution, Self-transport only license from the Department of Cannabis Control. The site is currently equipped with residential structures, livestock grazing, and full perimeter fencing, with access provided via a private drive featuring a locked gate and Knox Box for emergency services. Operational requirements include a grow season running from May through November, with on-site processing planned for up to three years. The facility will maintain specific delivery and pickup hours, generally between 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Sundays. The project is subject to rigorous environmental and regulatory standards, including a Mitigated Negative Declaration and a comprehensive Property Management Plan covering air quality, pest management, and waste disposal. Key technical specifications include a hydrological assessment estimating a daily water demand of 6,000 gallons supplied by an existing well, and a biological resources assessment to protect special-status species. Security must comply with Lake County Zoning Ordinance Article 27, requiring physical barriers, alarm systems, and strict personnel sign-in procedures. The project is classified as Tier 2 low risk for water quality and requires an annual fee of 1,000 dollars.
