Full Breakdown
Texas does not permit recreational cannabis dispensaries. The only legal cannabis distribution is through the Compassionate Use Program administered by the Texas Department of Public Safety. Only a small number of licensed dispensing organizations operate statewide, and none are located in Humble. These organizations are regulated at the state level with strict security, testing, and distribution requirements. Humble's zoning ordinance does not contain specific provisions for cannabis dispensaries because the use is not generally permitted under state law. Local governments in Texas cannot authorize cannabis retail operations beyond state law. If a Compassionate Use dispensary sought to locate in Humble, it would need to comply with applicable commercial zoning and obtain a certificate of occupancy. Contact Humble City Hall at (281) 446-3061 for zoning questions.
Violations & Fines
Operating an unauthorized cannabis dispensary is a felony under Texas law. Distribution of marijuana outside the Compassionate Use Program is prosecuted as delivery of a controlled substance with penalties ranging from a state jail felony to a first-degree felony depending on quantity. Contact Humble PD at (281) 446-7127 to report illegal activity.
