Cannabis laws in Chico, California are a little bit tricky, so make sure you listen up. First, while medical and recreational cannabis is legal within the state of California, the Chico City Council has not allowed any commercial cannabis businesses to open until very recently. As of November 3, 2020, the city council was in the process of finalizing applications and creating permitting and financing systems. Once potential businesses fill out those applications and get accepted by the city, they legally can open. California’s Prop 64 allows adults to possess, transport, obtain or give away up to one ounce of marijuana to another adult or those over 18 with a valid medical marijuana card. Equally important is that it is only legal to consume marijuana on private property with the owner’s permission. In other words, it is illegal to smoke in public. Additionally, consuming marijuana in any way inside a vehicle could potentially mean a DUI for you, so be safe.
