Green Savants, LLC, submitted an application for a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for a
cannabis facility at 888 E. Research Drive. The facility was to include cultivating, manufacturing,
distribution and lounge/dispensary.
On July 28, 2021, the Planning Commission considered the subject application for the proposed
cannabis cultivation and manufacturing facility within the existing building at 888 E. Research
Drive. At this meeting, the Planning Commission was unable to make necessary findings for
approval. Specifically, in response to required finding "a." of Palm Springs Zoning Code (PSZC),
Section 94.02.00 (B) (6), the Commission determined as follows:
Commission Determined: There is an existing dance studio offering classes to youth at 820 E.
Research Drive, a property that is approximately 175 feet from the project site. This studio is
considered a youth center. Based on the Special Schedule for Cannabis Uses, PSZC Section
93.23.15, the proposed facility violates the minimum separation requirements of 600 feet for a
siting a cannabis use(s) to a protected use, including the youth center. Therefore, the use
applied for at the location set forth in the application is not properly one for what a conditional
use permit may be authorized by the zoning code.
Required Finding: a. that the use applied for at the location set forth in the application is properly
one for which a conditional use permit is authorized by the Zoning Code.
The Planning Commission voted 6 — 0 to deny the subject application as required by Palm
Springs Zoning Code 94.02.00.
The applicant, Green Savants LLC, has appealed the decision of the Planning Commission to
City Council. Their appeal is tentatively scheduled for the October 14, 2021 Council meeting.
