Victorville has historically prohibited commercial cannabis retail dispensaries within city limits. Any commercial cannabis use requires both a state license and local authorization under the Municipal Code.
California Proposition 64 allows cities to regulate or ban commercial cannabis activity. Victorville has taken a restrictive approach and has not permitted storefront retail dispensaries within city limits, consistent with many High Desert cities. Any commercial cannabis activity including retail, delivery from a physical location, cultivation, manufacturing, distribution, or testing laboratory requires both a state license from the Department of Cannabis Control and local authorization. Without a local permit, commercial operations are prohibited. Unlicensed dispensaries are subject to immediate closure, abatement, and substantial civil penalties under Business and Professions Code 26038, which authorizes fines up to 30,000 dollars per day. State-licensed delivery services may operate across the state under Bureau of Cannabis Control v. Santa Cruz and related rules, but local enforcement can still address nuisances. Residents should verify current rules by checking the Victorville Municipal Code and Department of Cannabis Control state licensing databases before planning any cannabis business.
