Certain locations of cannabis businesses prohibition
SF 3743 prohibits cannabis businesses from locating within 1,000 feet of youth athletic facilities. This directly affects cannabis business operators seeking locations near facilities used by minors for sports or physical activities. The bill defines "youth athletic facility" as an indoor space regularly used by minors for competitive sports, athletics, or exercise. The law amends Minnesota Statutes to create this buffer zone requirement, aiming to limit cannabis business proximity to areas frequented by young people.
