Unincorporated San Bernardino County prohibits commercial cannabis retail, manufacturing, and distribution; only Adelanto, Hesperia, Needles, and a few other cities permit licensed dispensaries with strict buffers.
San Bernardino County Code Chapter 84.34 bans commercial cannabis activity in unincorporated areas, including storefront retail, delivery from local depots, and outdoor cultivation. Cities such as Adelanto, Needles, San Bernardino, and Hesperia permit licensed operations under their own ordinances with buffers from schools, parks, and daycares of 600 to 1000 feet. State licensing through the Department of Cannabis Control is required in addition to any local permit. Deliveries from licensed retailers in other cities are allowed countywide under California Bureau of Cannabis Control rules.
Operating an unlicensed dispensary in unincorporated SBC triggers immediate closure, criminal referral, civil fines, and loss of any future state licensing eligibility.
