Medical cannabis dispensaries in East Honolulu must comply with Honolulu's LUO and sit at least 750 feet from schools or playgrounds under HRS 329D-22, with retail hours limited to 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Medical cannabis dispensary zoning in East Honolulu is dictated by state HRS 329D-22, which requires dispensaries and production centers to comply with Honolulu County's Land Use Ordinance (ROH Chapter 21) and prohibits location within 750 feet of a school or playground. Production centers may operate where agricultural production is a permitted use, rare in East Honolulu's residential districts. A dispensary and production facility may not share a location. State rules cap retail hours at 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. HST daily. East Honolulu's predominantly residential zoning severely limits eligible dispensary sites, with commercial zones near Koko Marina and Hawaii Kai Town Center being possible candidates.
Operating outside approved zones or within the 750-foot buffer can trigger state license revocation, county zoning enforcement, and criminal referrals.
