Riverside County requires cannabis retail and cultivation sites to be set back from schools, daycares, youth centers, and parks, mirroring state minimums but adding county-specific distances in unincorporated areas.
Under Ordinance 348.4801, cannabis premises must maintain a 600-foot buffer from K-12 schools, daycares, and youth centers measured property line to property line, consistent with California Business and Professions Code section 26054. The county adds discretionary buffers around parks, churches, and rehab facilities applied during CUP review. Coachella Valley operators have successfully obtained variances where industrial parcels back up to schools, but new applicants face heightened scrutiny near sensitive uses. Distance is measured along the most direct pedestrian route.
Locating within buffer without state or county exemption: permit denial, abatement, civil penalties, and possible state license revocation.
