St. Michael adopted Ordinance 2404 on December 17, 2024, enacting Chapter 119 of the City Code to regulate cannabis businesses. The chapter implements Minnesota's adult-use cannabis statute (Minn. Stat. ch. 342) at the city level, including local registration of state-licensed retailers.
Ordinance 2404 enacts a new Chapter 119 (Regulation of Cannabis Business) covering local registration, zoning, and operational standards for state-licensed cannabis businesses. Under Minn. Stat. § 342.13 cities cannot ban cannabis retail outright but may limit the number of registered retailers to one per 12,500 residents (St. Michael's population supports one retailer). Local registration requires payment of the city's adopted 2025 fees (set in Chapter 39.02 by the same ordinance). Setback distances from schools, daycares, and treatment facilities are imposed at the state level (1,000 ft from a school by default) and supplemented locally by Chapter 119.
Operating a cannabis business without local registration is a misdemeanor under Sec. 10.99 — up to $1,000 / 90 days, with state cannabis license suspension or revocation possible under Minn. Stat. § 342.32.
