Cannabis dispensaries are prohibited in Cobb County. Only state-licensed Low-THC Oil dispensaries (under Georgia Access to Medical Cannabis Commission) are permitted, and Cobb's Board of Commissioners can restrict local siting.
Recreational and medical cannabis retail is prohibited in Cobb County under Georgia state law. The only form of legal cannabis sales in Georgia is low-THC oil (up to 5% THC) dispensed by the 6–7 licensees of the Georgia Access to Medical Cannabis Commission (GMCC). A 2023 Georgia law allowed independent pharmacies to carry low-THC oil, so a small number of Cobb pharmacies may participate after local approval. Cobb County has not opened zoning for commercial cannabis cultivation, processing, or dispensaries beyond state-licensed medical channels. Any unauthorized cannabis retail is a state felony (O.C.G.A. §16-13-30) plus county Ch. 90 business-license violation. Hemp-derived CBD retail is permitted in commercial zones subject to standard business licensing. Delta-8 and Delta-10 THC products remain in a regulatory gray zone under recent state legislation.
Unauthorized cannabis sales: felony trafficking (up to 30 years depending on quantity) plus asset forfeiture. Unlicensed retail: Ch. 90 $500–$1,000 + shutdown.
